If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Kelechi.

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.
