The first name 
Leisa

Leisa is a first name for girls.

Leisa – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Leisa 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 Leisa. That means that a girl named Leisa is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her 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 Leisa.

Leisa -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Leisa a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 344 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1958 – at that time, it ranked #501. 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 Leisa 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 Leisa, 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 Leisa was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Leisa in 2022 – There she is!

Welcome, Leisa, to 2022. Even if your highest rank is long ago, 9 parents welcomed a new Leisa to earth that year. That makes Leisa ranking on position 9,013 among newborn girls in the SmartGenius statistics. If you know someone named Leisa who was born in 2022, you know someone truly special.

Leisa -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Leisa, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 38 states are home to women and girls named Leisa. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Leisa living in one state or another. If your name is Leisa and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Utah, which has the most people named Leisa relative to the population, you still have to ask 11,798 women and girls their names before you hear Leisa as an answer just once.

Leisa has 5 letters 
and begins with an L

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

With five letters, the name Leisa is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. 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. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.

That means that with 6.8% of all girls' names that begin with an L, this first letter is much more common than the other letters on average. If you are now wondering which girls' name with L is the most common... the answer is Linda.

Other names with
