The first name 
Maryan

Maryan is a female first name. In very rare cases it is also used for boys.

When two girls called Maryan meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Maryan is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 girls have been named Maryan. In the SmartGenius ranking, Maryan is #4,304 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Maryan.

Maryan -
swimming against the tide

If your name is Maryan your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Maryan never ranked higher than position 1,330 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Maryan. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1917 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Maryan because that was several decades ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.

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

2022 - looking for Maryan?

As in the last century, Maryan still proves to be exceptional. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 21 times in the entire U.S. So, a Maryan from 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.

Maryan -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Maryan in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 162 women and girls named Maryan, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 162 women and girls named Maryan live in no more than 7 different states, including for example California, Illinois, Minnesota, New York and Ohio. In all other 42 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Maryan. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Maryan lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Maryan and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Maryan relative to its female population is Minnesota. And even there, only one in 32,683 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Maryan.

Maryan 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 Maryan 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 
M, a, r, y, a and n

If you take all the letters in the name Maryan – M, a, r, y, a and n – and put them together again, you can form other names, such as Marnay or others.
