Jenai is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Jenai in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Jenai in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Jenai by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Jenai ranks at #9,422. That means there are 9,421 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 Jenai.
In fact, the name Jenai hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Jenai wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1997, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 3,018, 35 parents chose it in 1997 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Jenai, 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 Jenai was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Jenai a few times. Among all newborn girls, it ranked 9,013, for a total of 9 babies. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Jenai seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
The first name Jenai is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 55 Americans in total bear this name. And these 55 women are located in only five states: California, Florida, New York, Texas and Washington (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Jenai and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Jenai in relation to it’s female population is Florida. And yet even there, only one in 409,186 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Jenai.
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 five letters, the name Jenai is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five 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 Jenai 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...
