Lorrayne is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Lorrayne 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 Lorrayne. That means that a girl named Lorrayne 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 Lorrayne.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Lorrayne in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 211 women and girls named Lorrayne, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 211 women and girls named Lorrayne live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and North Dakota. In all other 44 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Lorrayne. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Lorrayne lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Lorrayne and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Lorrayne relative to its female population is Minnesota. And even there, only one in 25,838 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Lorrayne.
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 eight letters, the name Lorrayne is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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 Lorrayne 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...
