The first name 
Lovie

Lovie is a first name for girls, occasionally also given to boys.

Lovie – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Lovie in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Lovie in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Lovie by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Lovie ranks at #7,140. That means there are 7,139 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 Lovie.

Lovie -
evergreen, but special

For more than 140 years, parents decide to name their daughter Lovie annualy. This means that there have been girls named Lovie who witnessed the first Labor Day parade in the U.S. or followed Albert Einstein's career. The name has 'always been there', but never ranked in the top 100, and thus women named Lovie have consistently been special. The name was particularly popular a long time ago in the 19th century. In one particular year, long before the first passenger flight and even before there was the first real radio, parents liked Lovie even more than any other time: in 1892, it holds its present record of rank #360 in the list of the most popular girls' names.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Lovie was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

How popular was Lovie 2022 among young parents?

Lovie has never been ranked higher than #360. In 2022, she rivaled the 5,089 names that preceded her on the list. In total, 21 girls named Lovie were born in that year. For comparison: 30 years earlier, in 1992, when possibly the parents of the now very young Lovie were born, there have been 17 newborns who received this name.

Lovie 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 Lovie 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.
