The first name 
Konstantin

Konstantin is a first name for boys.

When two boys called Konstantin meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Konstantin is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 boys have been named Konstantin. In the SmartGenius ranking, Konstantin is #3,012 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Konstantin.

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

The first name Konstantin is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 117 Americans in total bear this name. And these 117 men are located in only five states: California, Florida, Illinois, New York and Texas (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 Konstantin 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 Konstantin in relation to it’s male population is Florida. And yet even there, only one in 264,036 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Konstantin present.

Konstantin has 10 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 ten letters, the name Konstantin is obviously a particularly long first name used in the U.S.: only 1.8% of all common first names have exactly ten letters. 98% of all first names are shorter, while only 0.6% of all boys’ and girls’ names need more than ten 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 7.9% 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.
