And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 5 women with that name. So, if your name is Shaletha, chances are you will never meet another woman with your beautiful first name.
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 eight letters, the name Shaletha is long compared to other names.
