The first name 
Lanea

Lanea is a female first name.

Lanea – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Lanea in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Lanea in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Lanea by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Lanea ranks at #8,708. That means there are 8,707 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 Lanea.

Lanea -
special from day one

In fact, the name Lanea hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Lanea 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 1986, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 4,271, 16 parents chose it in 1986 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Lanea, 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 Lanea was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
