Magan is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Magan 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 Magan. That means that a girl named Magan 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 Magan.
Is the name Magan a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1985, when it ranked #866 with 171 newborn girls receiving this special first name. In times of emerging digitalization, it thus experienced its last peak. Since Magan is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their daughter this unusual name. So, if your name is Magan, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Magan was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

The odds of living in the same state as someone with the first name Magan are about the same as betting on heads or tails in a coin toss. This girl’s name is quite popular, but not equally so throughout the entire USA. You can meet girls and women with the name Magan in 22 states – that is about every second of all 50 states in the USA, for example in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida or Georgia. In relation to the number of residents, the most women and girls with the first name Magan live in Alabama – here, one in 19,955 bears this beautiful name. In comparison, if we look at all living women and girls in the whole country, only one in 109,653 will turn around if you call her first name Magan.
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 five letters, the name Magan 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.
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.
If your name is Magan 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...
