The first name 
Lonn

Lonn is a first name for boys.

Lonn – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Lonn 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Lonn. That means that a boy named Lonn is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life. Of all Americans currently living, not even one in 100,000 would answer if you shouted out the name Lonn.

Lonn -
something very, very special - even in his home state Wisconsin!

If you’re looking for someone named Lonn, you might want to head to Wisconsin. Why Wisconsin of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no men or boys named Lonn living in any other state. However, we have to admit that a first name is only listed in the official statistics of a state if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it may well be that there are still a few men and boys named Lonn living in one state or another. But, in any case the name is extremely rare. (If your name happens to be Lonn and you live outside of Wisconsin, we would be very grateful if you could let us know so that we can refine our statistics even further). By the way, even in Wisconsin, the name Lonn is not really that common – there are only 5 men and boys with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00015% of all male residents of Wisconsin – so if you are one of them, you can rightly say that you are someone very special!

Lonn has 4 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 neither particularly common nor particularly rare as a first letter for boys' names: 4.1% of all common boys' names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters of boys' names are J and A, while X and U are the least common initials of boys' names.

With four letters, the name Lonn is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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.

Thus, it follows that with 4.1% of all boys' names starting with an L, this initial letter occurs about as often as all 26 letters on average. Nevertheless, there are boys' names with L that are quite common, the most common in the U.S. at present is Larry.
