The first name 
Seraiah

Seraiah is a first name typically given to girls, but in rare cases also used as a boys name.

Seraiah – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Seraiah in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Seraiah in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Seraiah by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Seraiah ranks at #8,708. That means there are 8,707 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 Seraiah.
