The first name 
Kainoah

Kainoah is a first name for boys.

Kainoah – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Kainoah 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Kainoah. That means that a boy named Kainoah is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life. Of all Americans currently living, not even one in 100,000 would answer if you shouted out the name Kainoah.

Kainoah -
something very, very special - even in his home state California!

If you’re looking for someone named Kainoah, you might want to head to California. Why California of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no men or boys named Kainoah living in any other state. However, we have to admit that a first name is only listed in the official statistics of a state if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it may well be that there are still a few men and boys named Kainoah living in one state or another, but in any case the name is extremely rare. (If your name happens to be Kainoah and you live outside of California, we would be very grateful if you could let us know so that we can refine our statistics even further). By the way, even in California, the name Kainoah is not really that common – there are only 7 men and boys with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00004% of all male residents of California – so if you are one of them, you can rightly say that you are someone very special!

Kainoah has 7 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 seven letters, the name Kainoah 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.

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.
