Jase -
very special and well known across the entire USA

Everyone knows him, everyone loves him and still he’s different from the mainstream: Jase occurs in every single state of the U.S. This may sound quite unspectacular at first, but in fact, of the nearly 50,000 different male first names that occur in the USA, only 386 are recorded in each individual state, so the name Jase is definitely something very special. However, at the same time, since the name does not appear in the top 100 most common first names in any single state, Jase is not one of those names that everyone encounters in his neighbourhood, but stands out from the crowd, captures attention and is something special without being strange or unknown. From Alaska to Florida, a total of 20,928 men and boys of all generations bear the name Jase – that is one in 7,976. However, there are considerable regional differences – the name is far more popular than average in Arkansas, where one in 400 men and boys is called Jase, while it is particularly rare in Rhode Island, where you have to ask an average of 69,948 men for their name to get Jase as an answer once.

Jase has 4 letters 
and begins with a J

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.

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.
