The first name 
Ikra

Ikra is a female first name.

Ikra – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Ikra has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Ikra. That means that a girl named Ikra is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life.

You won't believe all there is 
to discover about the name
 
Ikra

Ikra has 4 letters 
and begins with an I

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter I is pretty rare as an initial letter for girls' names: only 1.7% of all common girls' names in the US begin with an I. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.

With four letters, the name Ikra is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.

That means that since 1.7% of all girls’ names begin with an I, this initial occurs only about half as often as the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are of course single names that begin with an I, which are quite popular

Other names with 
I, k, r and a

If you take all the letters in the name Ikra – I, k, r and a – and put them together again, you can form other names, such as Arik or others.
