Itamar is a male first name. In very rare cases it is also used for girls.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Itamar in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Itamar in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Itamar by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Itamar ranks at #6,164. That means there are 6,163 more common boys 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 Itamar.
If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Itamar, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in California or New York. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Itamar living in one state or another. (If your name is Itamar and you live outside of California 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 440,210 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Itamar. So if your name is Itamar, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Itamar already makes you quite special.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter I is quite rare as a first letter for boys' names: only 1.5% of all common boys' names in the US begin with an I. The most common first letters of boys' names, by the way, are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With six letters, the name Itamar 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 if 1.5% of all boys' names begin with an I, this initial letter is significantly less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are boys' names with I that are quite popular, the most common at present is Isaac.
If your name is Itamar 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...
