Peaches is a female first name.
Recently, the name Peaches 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 Peaches. That means that a girl named Peaches is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her 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 Peaches.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Peaches. Girls named Peaches have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 2,143 Peaches ranked higher than ever in 1910. By comparison, there have been 83 years in which the first name Peaches has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Peaches only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves really special!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Peaches was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
The first name Peaches is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 50 Americans in total bear this name. And these 50 women are located in only four states: California, Georgia, New York and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Peaches and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Peaches in relation to it’s female population is California. And yet even there, only one in 426,083 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Peaches.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter P is quite rare as an initial letter for girls' names: only 1.6% of all common girls' names in the US begin with a P, which means that this initial occurs only about half as often as the other letters on average. Nevertheless, P is by no means the rarest initial. While A, S and M are the most common first letters of girls' names, Q, X and U are the least common initials of feminine first names.
With seven letters, the name Peaches 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.
That means that since 1.6% of all girls’ names begin with a P, this initial occurs less than half as often as the other letters on average. By the way, of the comparatively few girls' names that begin with a P, Patricia is currently the most common.
If your name is Peaches 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...
