Kelechi is a name for all genders, somewhat more commonly used for boys.
At least in the US, the name Kelechi is extremely rare. Recently, only a handful of babies has been named Kelechi each year. That means it’s extremely unlikely that a boy or girl called Kelechi will meet someone with the same name. So, Kelechi is a very special name!
In fact, the name Kelechi hardly fits the trend of first names. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Kelechi wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1995, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 5,405, 34 parents chose it in 1995 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Kelechi, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Kelechi was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Kelechi a few times. Among all newborn babies, it ranked 15,186, for a total of 11 newborns. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Kelechi seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter K is a quite popular first letter for given names. That’s because 7.7% of all common first names in the US begin with this letter. Only the initial letters A and J are more common for first names.
With seven letters, the name Kelechi 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.
Therefore: As 7.7% of all first names start with a K, this initial letter occurs more than twice as often as all 26 letters on average.
If your name is Kelechi 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...
