The first name 
Miran

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

Miran – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Miran in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Miran in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Miran by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Miran ranks at #4,025. That means there are 4,024 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 Miran.
