Tehila is a female first name.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Tehila is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 girls have been named Tehila. In the SmartGenius ranking, Tehila is #3,849 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Tehila.
In fact, the name Tehila did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Tehila seemed to be more popular than ever in 2021. Although the name never ranked higher than #3,046, 45 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Tehila, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Tehila was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Tehila a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #3,640 - with a total of 35 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
The first name Tehila is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 466 Americans in total bear this name. And these 466 women are located in only four states: California, Florida, New Jersey and New York (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Tehila and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Tehila in relation to it’s female population is New York. And yet even there, only one in 33,427 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Tehila.
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 six letters, the name Tehila is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. 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 Tehila 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...
