Raliegh -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Raliegh a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1888 – at that time, it landed at position 865 with 5 newborn boys receiving this special first name. This was the last peak in a world without airplanes, computers, rock music, or even television. Because Raliegh is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always think to give their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Raliegh, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, your name is what makes you stand out these days!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Raliegh was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

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 quite common as an initial letter for boys’ names. To be precise, 5.2% of all boys' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of boys' names, by the way, are J, A and D.

With seven letters, the name Raliegh 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.

Therefore: As 5.2% of all boys' names start with R, this initial letter occurs much more often than all 26 letters on average. And maybe interesting to know: of all the names that begin with an R, Robert is the most common.
