Marye is a female first name.
Recently, the name Marye 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 Marye. That means that a girl named Marye 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 Marye.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Marye 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 102 women and girls named Marye, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 102 women and girls named Marye live in no more than 7 different states, including for example California, Indiana, Missouri, Ohio and Oklahoma. In all other 42 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Marye. (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 Marye lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Marye 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 Marye relative to its female population is Texas. And even there, only one in 183,697 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Marye.
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 Marye 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 Marye 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 Marye, you can simply say:
Mouse
Apple
Rocket
Yoyo
Elephant
