Omran is a first name for boys.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Omran in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Omran in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Omran by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Omran ranks at #6,505. That means there are 6,504 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 Omran.
Meeting a man or boy named Omran is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Omran can be found in only two: New York and Texas. No other state currently has residents named Omran. 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 Omran living in one state or another. (If your name is Omran and you live outside of New York or Texas, 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 Omran is in Texas, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in Texas, only 0.00005% of all male residents are called Omran – that’s just one in 2,030,947! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 11 men going by that name. So, if your name is Omran, 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: The letter O is pretty rare as an initial letter for boys' names: only 1.8% of all common boys' names in the US begin with an O. The most common first letters of boys' names, by the way, are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With five letters, the name Omran 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.
That means that since 1.8% of all boys’ names begin with an O, this initial occurs only about half as often as the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are of course single names beginning with an O, which are quite popular
If your name is Omran 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 Omran, you can simply say:
