The first name 
Iriana

Iriana is a female first name.

Iriana – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Iriana in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Iriana in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Iriana by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Iriana ranks at #5,959. That means there are 5,958 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Iriana.

Iriana -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Iriana did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Iriana seemed to be more popular than ever in 2004. Although the name never ranked higher than #3,612, 35 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Iriana, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Iriana was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Iriana in 2022 – originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Iriana a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #6,652 - with a total of 14 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.

Iriana -
at home in California and Texas

If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Iriana, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in California and Texas. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if tehre are at least five people with that name living there – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Iriana living in one state or another (if your name is Iriana and you live outside of California and Texas, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know, so we can refine our statistics even further). Which means – if you put this number in relation to the population of the USA – only one in 211,425 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Iriana. So, if your name is Iriana it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Iriana already makes you special.

Iriana has 6 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 six letters, the name Iriana is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. 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, r, i, a, n and a

If you take all the letters in the name Iriana – I, r, i, a, n and a – and put them together again, you can form other names, such as Irania or others.
