The first name 
Myrlande

Myrlande is a female first name.

Myrlande – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Myrlande 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 Myrlande. That means that a girl named Myrlande is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. Of all Americans currently living, not even one in 100,000 would answer if you shouted out the name Myrlande.

Myrlande -
something very, very special - even in her home state Florida!

If you’re looking for someone named Myrlande, you might want to head to Florida. Why Florida of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no women or girls named Myrlande living in any other state. However, we have to admit that a first name is only listed in the official statistics of a state if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it may well be that there are still a few women and girls named Myrlande living in one state or another. But, in any case the name is extremely rare (if your name happens to be Myrlande and you live outside of Florida, we would be very grateful if you could let us know so that we can refine our statistics even further). By the way, even in Florida, the name Myrlande is not really that common – there are only 5 women and girls with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00010% of all female residents of Florida – so if you are one of them, you can rightly say that you are someone very special!

Myrlande has 8 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 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 Myrlande 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.
