Teague

When two boys called Teague meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Teague is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 boys have been named Teague. In the SmartGenius ranking, Teague is #2,609 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Teague.

Teague -
ahead of the curve

Although the name never ranked higher than #1,589, 82 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Teague, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Teague was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
