Konstantinos -
special from day one

In fact, the name Konstantinos hardly fits the trend of first names for boys. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Konstantinos 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 1977, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,038, 57 parents chose it in 1977 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Konstantinos, 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 Konstantinos was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Konstantinos - originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Konstantinos a few times. Among all newborn boys, it ranked 2,739, for a total of 39 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 Konstantinos seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.

at home only in a few regions of the USA

In not even one in five states you will find more than 4 men and boys with the name Konstantinos. This first name might not be completely unknown, but in the entire United States, there are about 865 Americans who bear this name. And these 865 men and boys named Konstantinos live in no more than 7 different states, including for example California, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts and New Jersey. In the other 42 states, there are either none or less than a handful boys and men with this name (to explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five men 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 Konstantinos lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Konstantinos and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics).

And even there, only one male in 23,467 would raise his hand if you asked, who is called Konstantinos.

Konstantinos has 12 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 twelve letters, the name Konstantinos is obviously particularly long for a first name. Only 0.1% of all common first names in the U.S. contain exactly twelve letters, and just another 0.1% are even longer. Most first names – more than 99% – have fewer 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.
