The first name 
Navid

Navid is a first name typically given to boys, but in rare cases also used as a girls name.

Navid – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Navid in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Navid in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Navid by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Navid ranks at #4,467. That means there are 4,466 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 Navid.

Navid -
special from day one

In fact, the name Navid hardly fits the trend of first names for boys. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Navid wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1990, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,501, 49 parents chose it in 1990 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Navid, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Navid was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Navid - originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Navid a few times. Among all newborn boys, it ranked 7,630, for a total of 8 babies. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Navid seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.

Navid -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

The first name Navid is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 229 Americans in total bear this name. And these 229 men are located in only four states: California, 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 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Navid 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 boys and men named Navid in relation to it’s male population is California. And yet even there, only one in 82,069 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Navid present.

Navid has 5 letters 
and begins with an N

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 five letters, the name Navid 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, 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.

Other names with
