Madina -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Madina did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit.

Although the name never ranked higher than #2,031, 82 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Madina, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

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

So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Madina lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Madina and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.).

Madina has 6 letters 
and begins with an M

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter M is a quite popular first letter for girls' names. That’s because 8.5% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters A and S are more common for girls' names.

With six letters, the name Madina is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. 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.

Therefore: As 8.5% of all girls' names start with an M, this initial letter occurs nearly 2.5-times as often as all 26 letters on average – and the most common one of all the girls’ names starting with M is Mary.
