The first name 
Racheal

Racheal is a first name for girls.

Racheal – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Racheal in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Racheal in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Racheal by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Racheal ranks at #6,400. That means there are 6,399 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Racheal.

Racheal -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Racheal, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 37 states are home to women and girls named Racheal. (To be fair, 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 entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Racheal living in one state or another. If your name is Racheal and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Tennessee, which has the most people named Racheal relative to the population, you still have to ask 10,432 women and girls their names before you hear Racheal as an answer just once.

Racheal has 7 letters 
and begins with an R

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter R is neither particularly common nor particularly rare as a first letter for girls' names: 4.1% of all common girls' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of girls' names are A and S, while X and U are the least common initials of girls' names.

With seven letters, the name Racheal 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.

Thus, it follows that if 4.1% of all girls' names start with an R, this initial letter occurs about as often as all 26 letters on average. And maybe interesting to know: Rebecca is the girls’ name starting with R, which is the most common of all.

R, a, c, h, e, a and l
