Lalla – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Lalla 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 girl in 100,000 has been named Lalla.

Lalla -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Lalla a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1888 – at that time, it landed at position 835 with 9 newborn girls receiving this special first name. This was the last peak in a world without airplanes, computers, rock music, or even television. Because Lalla is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always think to give their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Lalla, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, your name is what makes you stand out these days!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Lalla was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Lalla has 5 letters 
and begins with an L

But what you might not know is: The letter L is a particularly popular initial letter for girls' names – 6.8% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for girls’ names are A and S.

Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long.
