Violetta is a female first name.
Violetta is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth girl, and therefore ranks at 1,687 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,686 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Violetta.
Violetta is not an overly common name, in fact in some of the last 143 years it has been given so infrequently that it doesn't even show up in our statistics (here a name is only recorded in those years in which it was given to newborns at least five times). This was, for example, most recently the case in 1898, where the name Violetta was given at most four times in the entire USA, perhaps even less or not even once. (If you are Violetta and were born in the USA in 1898, please get in touch with us!) Before that, however, there was a time when the name was significantly more popular - way back in the 19th century, Violetta even made it into the top 1,000 of our SmartGenius statistics of the most popular girls' names: In 1884, it ranked on position 750 - a popularity it has never reached again since then.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Violetta was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
Although the name Violetta has a changeful history, it has clearly arrived in the present. In 2022, the name was given by young parents to their newborn children a remarkable 133 times and thus landed on position 1,443 in the SmartGenius ranking of the currently most popular female first names. However, the name is still so rare that the 133 girls with the name Violetta, who are celebrating their second birthday this year, can rightly feel very special, because it is highly likely that in their kindergarten they will be the only children with this name.
The odds of living in the same statae as someone named Violetta are about the same as meeting someone with blue eyes in the entire country – both odds are about 25 to 30 %. More precisely, the first name Violetta is registered in 17 states, among which are Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida or Illinois. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Violetta live in Arizona, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 36,940 would turn around if you called the name Violetta across Arizona.
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 eight letters, the name Violetta is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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 Violetta 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 Violetta, you can simply say:
