Na is a first name for girls, occasionally also given to boys.
Recently, the name Na 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 Na. That means that a girl named Na is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Na.
The first name Na is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 22 Americans in total bear this name. And these 22 women are located in only four states: California, Minnesota, New York and Pennsylvania (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. So, if your name is Na and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Na in relation to it’s female population is Minnesota. And yet even there, only one in 468,452 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Na.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter N is neither particularly common nor particularly rare as a first letter for girls' names: 4.1% of all common girls' names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters of girls' names are A and S, while X and U are the least common initials of girls' names.
Being only two letters long, the name Na is really special. Only 0.2% of all common first names in the US are written with just two letters. On the other hand, 99.8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use more than two 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.
Thus, it follows that with 4.1% of all girls' names starting with an N, this initial letter occurs about as often as all 26 letters on average. Nevertheless, there are girls' names with N that are quite common, the most common in the U.S. at present is Nancy.
If your name is Na 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? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Na, you can simply say:
