Johanne is a female first name.
Recently, the name Johanne 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 Johanne. That means that a girl named Johanne 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 Johanne.
If your name is Johanne your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Johanne never ranked higher than position 1,021 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Johanne. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1939 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Johanne because that was several decades ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Johanne was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Johanne still proves to be very exceptional. In 2022, for example, it was not given once in the entire U.S. - or, to be more precise, it was given at most four times, because names given less than five times in one year are not included in the official statistics. So if you know someone named Johanne who was born in 2022, please let us know - we would be very interested in hearing about it so that we can provide you with even more accurate statistics.
The first name Johanne is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 218 Americans in total bear this name. And these 218 women are located in only five states: Florida, Massachusetts, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania (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 Johanne 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 Johanne in relation to it’s female population is New York. And yet even there, only one in 85,238 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Johanne.
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 seven letters, the name Johanne has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight 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.
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 Johanne 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...
