Onah – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Onah 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 girl in 100,000 has been named Onah.

You won't believe all there is 
to discover about the name
 
Onah

Onah has 4 letters 
and begins with an O

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter O is quite rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 1.0% of all common girls' names in the US begin with an O. By the way, the most common first letters of girls' names are A, S and M, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.

With four letters, the name Onah 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.

Therefore: As 1.0% of all girls' names begin with an O, this initial letter is significantly less common than the other letters on average. However, individual girls' names with O are really popular, the most common currently being Olivia.

Other names with
