Yanelis is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Yanelis in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Yanelis in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Yanelis by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Yanelis ranks at #5,371. That means there are 5,370 more common girls 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 Yanelis.
In fact, the name Yanelis did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Yanelis seemed to be more popular than ever in 2014. Although the name never ranked higher than #3,113, 46 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Yanelis, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Yanelis was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Yanelis a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #7,858 - with a total of 11 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
The first name Yanelis is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 186 Americans in total bear this name. And these 186 women are located in only four states: Florida, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania (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 Yanelis 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 Yanelis in relation to it’s female population is Florida. And yet even there, only one in 32,093 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Yanelis.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter Y is pretty rare as an initial letter for girls' names: only 1.8% of all common girls' names in the US begin with Y. By the way, the most common first letters of girls' names are A, S and M, while Q, X and U are the least common initials of girls' names.
With seven letters, the name Yanelis has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight 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.
Since 1.8% of all girls’ names begin with a Y, this initial occurs only about half as often as the other letters on average, but Y is by no means the rarest initial. And of course, there are single names with Y that are very popular, currently the most common girls’ name that starts with Y is Yvonne.
If your name is Yanelis 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 Yanelis, you can simply say:
Yoyo
Apple
Nut
Elephant
Lion
Igloo
