Rody is a first name for boys.
Recently, the name Rody has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one boy in 100,000 has been named Rody. That means that a boy named Rody is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Rody. Boys named Rody have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,841 Rody ranked higher than ever in 1960. By comparison, there have been 91 years in which the first name Rody has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2020. In general, parents name their sons Rody only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves really special!

In 2022, Rody continues to be a precious jewel: 10 newborns were named Rody that year, ranking #6,627 in the SmartGenius name statistics. If your baby's name is Rody, you must have a flair for beautiful and rare names: Congratulations, your child is sure to feel unique.
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 four letters, the name Rody is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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.
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.
If your name is Rody and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
