Jara is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Jara in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Jara in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Jara by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Jara ranks at #9,641. That means there are 9,640 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer.
In fact, the name Jara wasn't vogue in the 19th century, but between 1900 and 1975 young parents changed 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), Jara seemed more popular than ever in 1972, when 19 parents named their daughters Jara. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,995, that year parents chose it as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Jara, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Jara was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Jara a few times. Among all newborn girls, it ranked 7,858, for a total of 11 babies. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for a many years. As Jara seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter J is a particularly popular initial letter for girls' names. That’s because 6.8% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for girls’ names are A, S and M.
With four letters, the name Jara 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.
This means that with 6.8% of all girls' names that begin with the letter J, this first letter is much more common than the other letters on average. And Jennifer is the girls' name starting with J, which is the most common of all.
If your name is Jara 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...
