The first name 
Katryna

Katryna is a first name for girls.

Katryna – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Katryna 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 Katryna. That means that a girl named Katryna 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 Katryna.

Katryna -
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 Katryna. Girls named Katryna have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 2,447 Katryna ranked higher than ever before in 1992. By comparison, there have been 98 years in which the first name Katryna 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 Katryna 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 Katryna was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

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

It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Katryna 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 94 women and girls named Katryna, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 94 women and girls named Katryna live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania and Texas. In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Katryna. (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 Katryna lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Katryna 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 Katryna relative to its female population is California. And even there, only one in 222,581 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Katryna.

Katryna 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 girls' names. That’s because 7.5% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters A, S and M are more common for girls' names.

With seven letters, the name Katryna 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 7.5% of all girls' 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 girls' names that begin with a K, Karen is the most common.
