Lexia is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Lexia in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Lexia in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Lexia by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Lexia ranks at #7,704. That means there are 7,703 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 Lexia.
In fact, the name Lexia did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Lexia seemed to be more popular than ever in 2002. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,399, 60 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Lexia, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Lexia was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Lexia a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #9,733 - with a total of 8 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
The first name Lexia is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 85 Americans in total bear this name. And these 85 women are located in only three states: California, Florida and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Lexia 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 girls and women named Lexia in relation to it’s female population is Texas. And yet even there, only one in 238,415 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Lexia.
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 Lexia 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.
If your name is Lexia 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Lexia, you can simply say:

Elephant
Xylophone
