The first name 
Trevan

Trevan is a first name for boys.

Trevan – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Trevan in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Trevan in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Trevan by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Trevan ranks at #5,904. That means there are 5,903 more common boys 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 Trevan.

Trevan -
once in a blue moon

Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Trevan. Boys named Trevan have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 1,957 Trevan ranked higher than ever before in 1996. By comparison, there have been 98 years in which the first name Trevan has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their sons Trevan only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves exceptional!

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

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

The first name Trevan is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 59 Americans in total bear this name. And these 59 men are located in only three states: Oregon, Texas and Utah (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Trevan 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 boys and men named Trevan in relation to it’s male population is Utah. And yet even there, only one in 28,972 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Trevan present.
