Tavia is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Tavia in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Tavia in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Tavia by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Tavia ranks at #5,939. That means there are 5,938 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 Tavia.
In fact, the name Tavia hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Tavia 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 1993, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,417, 104 parents chose it in 1993 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Tavia, 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 Tavia was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Tavia a few times. Among all newborn girls, it ranked 9,013, for a total of 9 babies. 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 Tavia seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
The odds of living in the same statae as someone named Tavia are about the same as meeting someone with blue eyes in the entire country – both odds are about 25 to 30 %. More precisely, the first name Tavia is registered in 13 states, among which are California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan or Montana. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Tavia live in Montana, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 89,037 would turn around if you called the name Tavia across Montana.
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 five letters, the name Tavia 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.
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 Tavia 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...
