Noland is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Noland in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Noland in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Noland by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Noland ranks at #3,711. That means there are 3,710 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 Noland.
While Noland is not one of the most popular names of all time, it seems to have attracted parents especially more than 50 years ago in the last century. In 1957, the name Noland reached its highest popularity with #1,206 in our ranking of all male first names. As it is so exquisite, mothers and fathers did not always come up with the idea of naming their son Noland. Perhaps it was because the name was only occasionally in keeping with the spirit of the times - and boys in those decades were given the unusual and beautiful name of Noland.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Noland was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, 31 babies were born with the name Noland. This puts the name in rank 3,167 in the SmartGenius statistics - or in other words, one in 5,207,290 newborns was named Noland that year. Ever since first names have been registered, Noland has been and remains marvelously unusual!
Meeting a man or boy named Noland is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Noland can be found in only two: Louisiana and Missouri. No other state currently has residents named Noland. 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 Noland living in one state or another. (If your name is Noland and you live outside of Louisiana or Missouri, 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 Noland is in Louisiana, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in Louisiana, only 0.00020% of all male residents are called Noland – that’s just one in 490,169! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 11 men going by that name. So, if your name is Noland, 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 six letters, the name Noland is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven 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 Noland 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 Noland, you can simply say:
