Saja is a female first name.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Saja is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 girls have been named Saja. In the SmartGenius ranking, Saja is #3,544 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Saja.
In fact, the name Saja did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Saja seemed to be more popular than ever in 2020. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,967, 46 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Saja, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Saja was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Saja a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #3,797 - with a total of 33 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Saja in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 191 women and girls named Saja, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 191 women and girls named Saja live in no more than 8 different states, including for example California, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana and Michigan. In all other 41 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Saja. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Saja lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Saja and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Saja relative to its female population is Illinois. And even there, only one in 116,441 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Saja.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter S is a very popular first letter for girls' names. That’s because 9.3% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letter A is more common for girls' names.
With four letters, the name Saja 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.
That means that if 9.3% of all girls' names start with an S, this initial letter occurs nearly three times as often as all other letters on average. And by the way: Of all the girls' names that start with an S, Susan is the most common.
If your name is Saja 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...
