Macallister is a first name for boys.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Macallister in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Macallister in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Macallister by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Macallister ranks at #7,160. That means there are 7,159 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter M is a particularly popular initial letter for boys’ names – 6.2% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for boys’ names are J and A.
With eleven letters, the name Macallister is obviously a particularly long first name. Only 0.5% of all common first names in the U.S. contain exactly eleven letters, and only 0.1% are longer. Most first names – over 99% – have fewer letters. 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 6.2% of all boys' names that begin with an M, this first letter is much more common than the other letters on average. If you are now wondering which boys’ name with M is the most common... the answer is Michael.
If your name is Macallister 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...
