Kirstin is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Kirstin in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Kirstin in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Kirstin by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Kirstin ranks at #8,192. That means there are 8,191 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 Kirstin.
Is the name Kirstin a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1990, when it ranked #543 with 413 newborn girls receiving this special first name. In times of emerging digitalization, it thus experienced its last peak. Since Kirstin is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their daughter this unusual name. So, if your name is Kirstin, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Kirstin was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
Welcome, Kirstin, to 2022. Even if your highest rank is long ago, 5 parents welcomed a new Kirstin to earth that year.

You may not know anyone named Kirstin, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 36 states are home to women and girls named Kirstin. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Kirstin living in one state or another. If your name is Kirstin and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Minnesota, which has the most people named Kirstin relative to the population, you still have to ask 9,528 women and girls their names before you hear Kirstin as an answer just once.
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 seven letters, the name Kirstin 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 7.5% 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 Kirstin 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...
