The first name 
Tommi

Tommi is a female first name. In very rare cases it is also used for boys.

Tommi – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Tommi in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Tommi in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Tommi by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Tommi ranks at #5,199. That means there are 5,198 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 Tommi.

Tommi -
an underrated contemporary

While Tommi isn't one of the most popular names of all time, it does seem to have attracted parents especially in the second half of last century. In 1976 the name Tommi reached its highest popularity with #1,783 in our ranking of all female first names. As it is so exquisite, mothers and fathers did not always come up with the idea of naming their daughter Tommi. One might assume that this was because the name was only occasionally in keeping with the spirit of the times - and girls in those decades were given the unusual and beautiful name of Tommi.

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

Tommi in 2022 – marvelously unusual

In 2022, 19 babies were born with the name Tommi. This puts the name in rank 5,448 in the SmartGenius statistics - or in other words, one in 7,801,679 newborns was named Tommi that year. Ever since first names have been registered, Tommi has been and remains marvelously unusual!

Tommi -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Tommi in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 91 women and girls named Tommi, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 91 women and girls named Tommi live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Kentucky, New York, North Carolina and Ohio. In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Tommi. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Tommi lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Tommi and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Tommi relative to its female population is California. And even there, only one in 310,686 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Tommi.

Tommi has 5 letters 
and begins with a T

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 Tommi 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.
