The first name 
Nyle

Nyle is a male first name. In very rare cases it is also used for girls.

When two boys called Nyle meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Nyle is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 4 out of 100,000 boys have been named Nyle. In the SmartGenius ranking, Nyle is #1,958 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 Nyle.

Nyle -
swimming against the tide

If your name is Nyle your parents may be very proud to let their son swim against the tide: The name Nyle has never ranked higher than position 1,155 in our statistics and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea to choose the name Nyle for their son. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1928 to give the name more often than usual – only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Nyle because that was several decades ago – unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in your neighborhood.

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

2022 - Looking for Nyle?

As in the last century, Nyle is still an exception. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 61 times in the entire USA. So a Nyle of 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.

Nyle -
quite rare in all states

The odds of having a man or boy named Nyle in your home state are about the same as the chance for a white Christmas in New York City – in both cases they are less than 30%. More precisely, the first name Nyle is registered in 12 states, among which are California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois or Iowa. In proportion to the male population, most men and boys with the first name Nyle live in California, but even there the name is rather special – on average, you would have to ask 137,241 men and boys in California for their name before you meet one who answers with Nyle.

Nyle has 4 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 four letters, the name Nyle is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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
