The first name 
Neiko

Neiko is a male first name.

When two boys called Neiko meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Neiko is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 boys have been named Neiko. In the SmartGenius ranking, Neiko is #3,193 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Neiko.

Neiko -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Neiko did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Neiko seemed to be more popular than ever in 2020. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,398, 46 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Neiko, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

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

Neiko in 2022 – originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Neiko a few times. Among all newborn boys it ranked #3,380 - with a total of 28 baby boys. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving boys with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.

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

The first name Neiko is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 55 Americans in total bear this name. And these 55 men are located in only four states: California, Minnesota, 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 Neiko 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 Neiko in relation to it’s male population is California. And yet even there, only one in 418,761 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Neiko present.

Neiko 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 Neiko 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 
N, e, i, k and o

If you take all the letters in the name Neiko – N, e, i, k and o – and put them together again, you can form other names, such as Kione or others.
