The first name 
Kwamaine

Kwamaine is a first name for boys.

Kwamaine – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Kwamaine has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one boy in 100,000 has been named Kwamaine. That means that a boy named Kwamaine is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Kwamaine.

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

The first name Kwamaine is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 19 Americans in total bear this name. And these 19 men are located in only three states: Florida, Georgia and South Carolina (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 Kwamaine 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 Kwamaine in relation to it’s male population is South Carolina. And yet even there, only one in 331,018 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Kwamaine present.

Kwamaine has 8 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 eight letters, the name Kwamaine is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. 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.
