Oshun is a female first name. In some cases it's also given to boys.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Oshun in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Oshun in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Oshun by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Oshun ranks at #8,644. That means there are 8,643 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. Of all Americans currently living, not even one in 100,000 would answer if you shouted out the name Oshun.
If you’re looking for someone named Oshun, you might want to head to Florida. Why Florida of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no women or girls named Oshun living in any other state. However, we have to admit that a first name is only listed in the official statistics of a state if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it may well be that there are still a few women and girls named Oshun living in one state or another. But, in any case the name is extremely rare (if your name happens to be Oshun and you live outside of Florida, we would be very grateful if you could let us know so that we can refine our statistics even further). By the way, even in Florida, the name Oshun is not really that common – there are only 5 women and girls with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00010% of all female residents of Florida – so if you are one of them, you can rightly say that you are someone very 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 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 five letters, the name Oshun 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.
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.
If your name is Oshun 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 Oshun, you can simply say:
