Qadriyyah is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Qadriyyah 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 Qadriyyah. That means that a girl named Qadriyyah 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 Qadriyyah.
Meeting a woman or girl named Qadriyyah is something really special. Out of all 50 states, women and girls named Qadriyyah can be found in only : . No other state currently has residents named Qadriyyah. 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 women and girls called Qadriyyah living in one state or another (if your name is Qadriyyah and you live outside of , 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 Qadriyyah is in New Jersey, as there live more women and girls with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in New Jersey, only 0.00024% of all female residents are named Qadriyyah – that’s just one in 420,865! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 10 women with that name. So, if your name is Qadriyyah, chances are you will never meet another woman with your beautiful first name.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The Q is really rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 0.4% of all common girls' names in the US begin with a Q. Only the letters U and Q are even rarer as the first letter of girls' names. By the way, the most common initial letters for girls’ names are A and S.
With nine letters, the name Qadriyyah is relatively long compared to other names. In fact, 5.6% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly nine letters. 92% of all first names are shorter, while not even 2.5% of all boys’ and girls’ names use ten or more letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
That means that as 0.4% of all girls' names start with a Q, all other letters occur on average more than nine times as often as the Q. Of the comparatively few girls' names that begin with a Q, most are also not very common - the most popular currently is Queen.
If your name is Qadriyyah 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...
