Storm is a unisex first name. It is given slightly more often to boys than to girls.
Few children have been named Storm in recent years. Although it is used several times each year, only approximately 5 out of 100,000 children are currently called Storm. Whether you’re a boy or a girl, you will most likely be the only person with the special name Storm at your school. In our SmartGenius ranking, Storm is number *** on the list of most common first names.
In fact, the name Storm hardly fits the trend of first names. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Storm wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1995, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,460, 245 parents chose it in 1995 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Storm, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Storm was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Storm a few times. Among all newborn babies, it ranked 1,930, for a total of 248 newborns. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Storm seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter S is a real popular first letter for given names. That’s because 7.7% of all common frist names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters A, J and K are more common for first names.
With five letters, the name Storm is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five 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 7.7% of all first names start with an S, this initial letter occurs more than twice as often as all 26 letters on average.
If your name is Storm 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Storm, you can simply say:
Sun
Tiger
Orange
Rocket
Mouse
