Maliq is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Maliq in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Maliq in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Maliq by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Maliq ranks at #4,360. That means there are 4,359 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Maliq.
The first name Maliq is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 57 Americans in total bear this name. And these 57 men are located in only five states: California, Florida, Illinois, Texas and Virginia (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Maliq and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Maliq in relation to it’s male population is Virginia. And yet even there, only one in 202,208 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Maliq present.
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 five letters, the name Maliq 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.
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 Maliq 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Maliq, you can simply say:
Mouse
Apple
Lion
Igloo
Queen
