The first name 
Randa

Randa is a female first name.

Randa – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Randa in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Randa in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Randa by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Randa ranks at #9,483. That means there are 9,482 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 Randa.

Randa -
an underrated contemporary

While Randa is not one of the most popular names of all time, it seems to have attracted parents especially more than 50 years ago in the last century. In 1947, the name Randa reached its highest popularity with #1,013 in our ranking of all female first names. As it is so exquisite, mothers and fathers did not always come up with the idea of naming their daughter Randa. Perhaps it was because the name was only occasionally in keeping with the spirit of the times - and girls in those decades were given the unusual and beautiful name of Randa.

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

Randa in 2022 – marvelously unusual

In 2022, 7 babies were born with the name Randa. This puts the name in rank 10,613 in the SmartGenius statistics - or in other words, one in 21,175,986 newborns was named Randa that year. Ever since first names have been registered, Randa has been and remains marvelously unusual!

Randa -
quite rare in all states

The odds of living in the same statae as someone named Randa are about the same as meeting someone with blue eyes in the entire country – both odds are about 25 to 30 %. More precisely, the first name Randa is registered in 19 states, among which are Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado or Georgia. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Randa live in Texas, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 29,030 would turn around if you called the name Randa across Texas.

Randa 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 Randa 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.
