Norville is a first name for boys.
Recently, the name Norville 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Norville. That means that a boy named Norville is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his 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 Norville.
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 to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Norville. Boys named Norville have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,619 Norville ranked higher than ever in 1913. By comparison, there have been 104 years in which the first name Norville 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 sons Norville only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves really special!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Norville was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
Meeting a man or boy named Norville is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Norville can be found in only : . No other state currently has residents named Norville. 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 Norville living in one state or another. (If your name is Norville 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 Norville is in Alabama, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in Alabama, only 0.00017% of all male residents are called Norville – that’s just one in 584,038! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 5 men going by that name. So, if your name is Norville, 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 eight letters, the name Norville 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, 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 Norville 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...
