Kimberlin is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Kimberlin in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Kimberlin in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Kimberlin by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Kimberlin ranks at #7,237. That means there are 7,236 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Kimberlin.
In fact, the name Kimberlin hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Kimberlin 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 1993, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,900, 67 parents chose it in 1993 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Kimberlin, 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 Kimberlin was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Kimberlin a few times. Among all newborn girls, it ranked 6,358, for a total of 15 babies. 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 Kimberlin seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Kimberlin 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 151 women and girls named Kimberlin, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 151 women and girls named Kimberlin live in no more than 6 different states, including for example Arizona, California, Florida, New York and North Carolina. In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Kimberlin. (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 Kimberlin lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Kimberlin 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 Kimberlin relative to its female population is California. And even there, only one in 156,978 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Kimberlin.
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 nine letters, the name Kimberlin is relatively long compared to other names. In fact, 5.6% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly nine letters. 92% of all first names are shorter, while not even 2.5% of all boys’ and girls’ names use ten or more letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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.
If your name is Kimberlin 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...
