If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Ridhaan.
The first name Ridhaan is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 105 Americans in total bear this name. And these 105 men are located in only four states: California, Illinois, New Jersey and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Ridhaan and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Ridhaan in relation to it’s male population is New Jersey. And yet even there, only one in 148,535 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Ridhaan present.
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 Ridhaan 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.
