The first name 
Kacen

Kacen is a first name for boys.

Kacen is a well-known but special name!

Kacen is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth boy, and therefore ranks at 1406 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,405 boys names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Kacen.

Kacen -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Kacen, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 25 states are home to men and boys named Kacen. (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 Kacen living in one state or another. If your name is Kacen 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 Georgia, which has the most people named Kacen relative to the population, you still have to ask 58,476 men and boys their names before you hear Kacen as an answer just once.

Kacen has 5 letters 
and begins with a K

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter K is a real popular first letter for boys’ names. That’s because 7.9% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters J, A and D are more common for boys' names.

With five letters, the name Kacen 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.

That means that if 7.9% of all boys' names start with a K, this initial letter occurs more than twice as often as all 26 letters on average. Interesting detail: of all the boys’ names that begin with a K, Kenneth is the most common.
