Tallulah is a female first name.
Tallulah is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth girl, and therefore ranks at 1,181 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,180 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Tallulah.
Tallulah is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Tallulah cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #910 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2022. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Tallulah, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their daughter. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Tallulah seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Tallulah was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
You may not know anyone named Tallulah, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 31 states are home to women and girls named Tallulah. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Tallulah living in one state or another. If your name is Tallulah and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In California, which has the most people named Tallulah relative to the population, you still have to ask 34,204 women and girls their names before you hear Tallulah as an answer just once.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter T is a quite popular first letter for girls' names. Because: 6.3% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for girls’ names are A, S and M.
With eight letters, the name Tallulah is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
With 6.3% of all girls' names that begin with a T, this first letter is thus much more common than all 26 letters on average - and the most popular one of all the girls’ names starting with T is Teresa.
If your name is Tallulah 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...
