Jerrod is a male first name. In very rare cases it is also used for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Jerrod is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 boys have been named Jerrod. In the SmartGenius ranking, Jerrod is # 3,075 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Jerrod.
You may not know anyone named Jerrod, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 40 states are home to men and boys named Jerrod. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few men and boys named Jerrod living in one state or another. If your name is Jerrod and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Oklahoma, which has the most people named Jerrod relative to the population, you still have to ask 6,685 men and boys their names before you hear Jerrod as an answer just once.
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 Jerrod 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 Jerrod 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...
