Virgin is a first name for girls, occasionally also given to boys.
Recently, the name Virgin has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Virgin. That means that a girl named Virgin is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Virgin.
If you’re looking for someone named Virgin, you might want to head to Louisiana. Why Louisiana of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no women or girls named Virgin living in any other state. However, we have to admit that a first name is only listed in the official statistics of a state if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it may well be that there are still a few women and girls named Virgin living in one state or another. But, in any case the name is extremely rare (if your name happens to be Virgin and you live outside of Louisiana, we would be very grateful if you could let us know so that we can refine our statistics even further). By the way, even in Louisiana, the name Virgin is not really that common – there are only 17 women and girls with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00063% of all female residents of Louisiana – so if you are one of them, you can rightly say that you are someone very special!
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 six letters, the name Virgin is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. 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 Virgin 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 Virgin, you can simply say:

Igloo
Rocket
Goat
