The first name 
Kingdom

Kingdom is a first name for boys.

Kingdom – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Kingdom in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Kingdom in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Kingdom by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Kingdom ranks at #3,776. That means there are 3,775 more common boys 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 Kingdom.

Kingdom -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

The first name Kingdom is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 34 Americans in total bear this name. And these 34 men are located in only five states: Georgia, New York, North Carolina, Texas and Virginia (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Kingdom and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Kingdom in relation to it’s male population is Virginia. And yet even there, only one in 734,991 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Kingdom present.

Kingdom has 7 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 boys’ names. That’s because 7.9% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters J, A and D are more common for boys' names.

With seven letters, the name Kingdom 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.

That means that if 7.9% of all boys' 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 boys’ names that begin with a K, Kenneth is the most common.
