Narayan is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Narayan in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Narayan in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Narayan by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Narayan ranks at #5,843. That means there are 5,842 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 Narayan.
Meeting a man or boy named Narayan is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Narayan can be found in only : . No other state currently has residents named Narayan. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Narayan living in one state or another. (If your name is Narayan and you live outside of , we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know so we can refine our statistics even further.) Either way, the name is quite rare. The best chance of meeting a Narayan is in California, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in California, only 0.00003% of all male residents are called Narayan – that’s just one in 3,266,336! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 5 men going by that name. So, if your name is Narayan, chances are you will never meet another man bearing that extraordinary first name.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: 3.0% of all common boys' names in the US begin with an N. This means that N as the first letter for boys' names is neither particularly common nor rare. The most common first letters of boys' names are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With seven letters, the name Narayan has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight letters or more. 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, if 3.0% of all boys’ names start with an N, this initial letter is slightly less common than all other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are boys' names with N that are quite common in the U.S., the most common at present is Nicholas.
If your name is Narayan 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...
