The first name 
Milano

Milano is a first name typically given to boys, but in rare cases also used as a girls name.

Milano – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Milano in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Milano in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Milano by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Milano ranks at #4,901. That means there are 4,900 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 Milano.

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.
