Keara -
keeping with the times

Keara is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Schoolkids of the early 20th century probably didn't have classmates named Keara - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 788 in 1999. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this girls' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Keara really in tune with her generation.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Keara was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Keara -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Keara, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 35 states are home to women and girls named Keara. (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 women and girls named Keara living in one state or another. If your name is Keara 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 Florida, which has the most people named Keara relative to the population, you still have to ask 24,551 women and girls their names before you hear Keara as an answer just once.

Keara 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 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 five letters, the name Keara 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 7.5% 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.
