The first name 
Moris

Moris is a male first name.

Moris – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Moris 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Moris. That means that a boy named Moris is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life.

Moris -
once in a blue moon

Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Moris. Boys named Moris have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 2,116 Moris ranked higher than ever in 1916. By comparison, there have been 103 years in which the first name Moris 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 2022. In general, parents name their sons Moris only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves really special!

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

Moris has 5 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 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.

With five letters, the name Moris 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.

That means that with 6.2% of all boys' names that begin with an M, this first letter is much more common than the other letters on average. If you are now wondering which boys’ name with M is the most common... the answer is Michael.
