Uchenna -
special from day one

In fact, the name Uchenna hardly fits the trend of first names. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Uchenna 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 1983, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 6,596, 17 parents chose it in 1983 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Uchenna, 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 Uchenna was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Uchenna - originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Uchenna a few times. Among all newborn babies, it ranked 22,363, for a total of 6 newborns.

As Uchenna seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
