Latonya is a female first name. In very rare cases it is also used for boys.
Recently, the name Latonya 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 Latonya. That means that a girl named Latonya is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. In the entire USA, approximately 19,821 people – children, adults and seniors – currently bear the name Latonya. That is 0.01 % of all living Americans.
Is the name Latonya a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 1,296 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1974 – at that time, it ranked #192. It thus experienced its last peak in a world without internet and cell phones, even before the first personal computer was built. (Do you remember? Those were those big boxes that couldn't even begin to do what a simple robot vacuum cleaner can do today). Since Latonya is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Latonya, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Latonya was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
Welcome, Latonya, to 2022. Even if your highest rank is long ago, 5 parents welcomed a new Latonya to earth that year.

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself!

If your name is Latonya and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
