Ita is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Ita in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Ita in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Ita by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Ita ranks at #6,199. That means there are 6,198 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 Ita.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Ita. Girls named Ita have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,510 Ita ranked higher than ever in 1901. By comparison, there have been 74 years in which the first name Ita has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 1998. In general, parents name their daughters Ita only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves really special!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Ita was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, Ita continues to be a precious jewel: 24 newborns were named Ita that year, ranking #4,671 in the SmartGenius name statistics. If your baby's name is Ita, you must have a flair for beautiful and rare names: Congratulations, your child is sure to feel unique.
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Ita, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in New Jersey and New York. 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 Ita living in one state or another (if your name is Ita and you live outside of New Jersey and New York, 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 85,851 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Ita. So, if your name is Ita it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Ita already makes you special.
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 only three letters, the name Ita is obviously very short. In fact, only 1.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly three letters. Just 0.2% of all first names are even shorter and only have two letters, while nearly 99% of all boys’ and girls’ names use more than three 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
If your name is Ita and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
