Mikhaila is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Mikhaila in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Mikhaila in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Mikhaila by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Mikhaila ranks at #9,241. That means there are 9,240 more common girls 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 Mikhaila.

Girls named Mikhaila have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 3,016 Mikhaila ranked higher than ever before in 1996. By comparison, there have been 109 years in which the first name Mikhaila has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2018. In general, parents name their daughters Mikhaila only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves exceptional!

And these 41 women are located in only three states: California, New York and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state.

The state with the most girls and women named Mikhaila in relation to it’s female population is California. And yet even there, only one in 532,604 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Mikhaila.
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 eight letters, the name Mikhaila is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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 Mikhaila 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?

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...
