Jachin is a first name for boys.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Jachin in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Jachin in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Jachin by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Jachin ranks at #5,286. That means there are 5,285 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer.
In fact, the name Jachin 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), Jachin seemed to be more popular than ever in 2011. Although the name never ranked higher than #3,465, 26 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Jachin, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Jachin was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Jachin a few times. Among all newborn boys it ranked #5,559 - with a total of 13 baby boys. 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 boys with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter J is the most popular first letter for boys’ names. 10.1% of all common boys’ names in the US start with this letter. The second most common first letter in boys’ names is A.
With six letters, the name Jachin 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 10.1% of all boys’ names start with a J, this initial letter occurs nearly three times as often as all other letters on average. And, by the way, of all the boys’ names that begin with the letter J, the name James is the most common.
If your name is Jachin 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...
