The first name 
Maeghan

Maeghan is a female first name.

Maeghan – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Maeghan 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 Maeghan. That means that a girl named Maeghan 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 Maeghan.

Maeghan -
once in a blue moon

Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Maeghan. Girls named Maeghan have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 2,039 Maeghan ranked higher than ever before in 1990. By comparison, there have been 106 years in which the first name Maeghan has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Maeghan only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves exceptional!

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

Maeghan has 7 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 seven letters, the name Maeghan has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight 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.
