Maisyn is a well-known but special name!

Maisyn is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth girl, and therefore ranks at 1,630 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,629 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Maisyn.

Maisyn -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Maisyn, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 28 states are home to women and girls named Maisyn. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Maisyn living in one state or another. If your name is Maisyn and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Oklahoma, which has the most people named Maisyn relative to the population, you still have to ask 49,461 women and girls their names before you hear Maisyn as an answer just once.

Maisyn 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 Maisyn 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.

Other names with
