The first name 
Raela

Raela is a first name for girls.

Raela – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Raela in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Raela in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Raela by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Raela ranks at #7,697. That means there are 7,696 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer.

Raela

Raela has 5 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 five letters, the name Raela 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.

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.

Other names with
