The first name 
Orman

Orman is a first name for boys.

Orman – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Orman 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 Orman. That means that a boy named Orman 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 Orman.

Orman -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Orman a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 34 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1915 – at that time, it ranked #969. It thus experienced its last peak in a world without internet and cell phones, even before the first personal computer was built. (Do you remember? Those were those big boxes that couldn't even begin to do what a simple robot vacuum cleaner can do today). Since Orman is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their baby boy this unusual name. So, if your name is Orman, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!

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

If you are reading this and you know someone with the name Orman born in 2022, please get in touch with us. Because we could not find any newborn boys with this name for the said year. Note: The official statistics only include names given at least 5 times in a year. So, if you know a Orman born in 2022, that seems like a real fluke!

Orman -
at home in New York and Texas

Meeting a man or boy named Orman is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Orman can be found in only two: New York and Texas. No other state currently has residents named Orman. 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 Orman living in one state or another. (If your name is Orman 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 Orman is in New York, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in New York, only 0.00005% of all male residents are called Orman – that’s just one in 2,127,683! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 11 men going by that name. So, if your name is Orman, chances are you will never meet another man bearing that extraordinary first name.

Orman has 5 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 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 Orman 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

Other names with 
O, r, m, a and n

If you take all the letters in the name Orman – O, r, m, a and n – and put them together again, you can form other names, such as Omran or others.
