Vaani is a female first name.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Vaani 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 Vaani. In the SmartGenius ranking, Vaani is #3,612 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 Vaani.
The first name Vaani is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 148 Americans in total bear this name. And these 148 women are located in only five states: California, Georgia, Illinois, New Jersey and Texas (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 Vaani 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 Vaani in relation to it’s female population is New Jersey. And yet even there, only one in 95,651 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Vaani.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter V is quite rare as an initial letter for girls' names: only 1.6% of all common girls' names in the US begin with V, which means that this initial occurs only about half as often as the other letters on average. But V is by no means the rarest initial. While Q, X and U are the least common initials of girls' names, the most common first letters of girls' names are A, S and M.
With five letters, the name Vaani 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.
From this follows that if 1.6% of all girls' names begin with a V, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Incidentally, of the comparatively few girls' names that begin with a V, Virginia is currently the most common.
If your name is Vaani 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Vaani, you can simply say:
