The first name 
Jennafer

Jennafer is a female first name.

Jennafer – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Jennafer has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Jennafer. That means that a girl named Jennafer is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Jennafer.

Jennafer -
once in a blue moon

Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Jennafer. Girls named Jennafer have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 1,393 Jennafer ranked higher than ever before in 1985. By comparison, there have been 100 years in which the first name Jennafer has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Jennafer only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves exceptional!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Jennafer was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Jennafer -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Jennafer in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 201 women and girls named Jennafer, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 201 women and girls named Jennafer live in no more than 8 different states, including for example California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan and New York. In all other 41 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Jennafer. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Jennafer lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Jennafer and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Jennafer relative to its female population is California. And even there, only one in 121,243 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Jennafer.

Jennafer has 8 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 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 eight letters, the name Jennafer is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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.
