Olamide is a first name for all genders. The name is given about equally often as boys and girls name.
At least in the US, the name Olamide is extremely rare. Recently, only a handful of babies has been named Olamide each year. That means it’s extremely unlikely that a boy or girl called Olamide will meet someone with the same name. So, Olamide is a very special name!
In fact, the name Olamide 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), Olamide seemed to be more popular than ever in 2014. Although the name never ranked higher than #7,259, 34 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Olamide, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Olamide was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Olamide a few times. Among all babies it ranked #13,592 - with a total of 13 newborns. 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 children with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter O is quite rare as an initial letter for first names: only 1.5% of all common given names in the US begin with an O, which means that this initial occurs less than half as often as the other letters on average. Nevertheless, O is by no means the rarest initial. While A, J and K are the most common first letters of given names, U, X and Q are the least common initials of first names.
With seven letters, the name Olamide has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight 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.
Now do the math: Since 1.5% of all first names begin with an O, this initial occurs less than half as often as the other letters on average.
If your name is Olamide 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...
