Nastasia is a female first name.
Recently, the name Nastasia 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 Nastasia. That means that a girl named Nastasia 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 Nastasia.
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 be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Nastasia. Girls named Nastasia have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 2,890 Nastasia ranked higher than ever before in 1987. By comparison, there have been 104 years in which the first name Nastasia 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 daughters Nastasia only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves exceptional!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Nastasia was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
The first name Nastasia is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 38 Americans in total bear this name. And these 38 women are located in only three states: Florida, New York and Texas (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 Nastasia 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 Nastasia in relation to it’s female population is New York. And yet even there, only one in 441,975 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Nastasia.
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 eight letters, the name Nastasia 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.
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 Nastasia 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...
