Kiari is a female first name, but it has increasingly been given to boys for a number of years.

When two girls called Kiari meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Kiari is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 girls have been named Kiari. In the SmartGenius ranking, Kiari is #3,274 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Kiari.

Kiari -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Kiari did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Kiari seemed to be more popular than ever in 2020. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,555, 118 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Kiari, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

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

Kiari in 2022 – originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Kiari a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #1,673 - with a total of 109 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.

Kiari 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 Kiari 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.
