Nadja is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Nadja 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 Nadja. That means that a girl named Nadja 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 Nadja.
If your name is Nadja your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Nadja never ranked higher than position 2,258 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Nadja. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1996 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Nadja because that was a few decades ago - unless you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Nadja was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Nadja still proves to be very exceptional. In 2022, for example, it was not given once in the entire U.S. - or, to be more precise, it was given at most four times, because names given less than five times in one year are not included in the official statistics. So if you know someone named Nadja who was born in 2022, please let us know - we would be very interested in hearing about it so that we can provide you with even more accurate statistics.
The first name Nadja is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 119 Americans in total bear this name. And these 119 women are located in only four states: California, Florida, New Jersey and New York (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 Nadja 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 Nadja in relation to it’s female population is New York. And yet even there, only one in 137,165 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Nadja.
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.
With five letters, the name Nadja 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.
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 Nadja 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 Nadja, you can simply say:
