Maribel is a female first name. In very rare cases it is also used for boys.
Maribel 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 1,422 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,421 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. In the entire USA, approximately 21,901 people – children, adults and seniors – currently bear the name Maribel. That is 0.01 % of all living Americans.
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 Maribel 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.

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...
