Yuna is a female first name.
Yuna 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 1,395 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,394 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 Yuna.
In fact, the name Yuna 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), Yuna seemed to be more popular than ever in 2022. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,005, 223 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Yuna, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Yuna was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
The odds of living in the same state as someone with the first name Yuna are about the same as betting on heads or tails in a coin toss. This girl’s name is quite popular, but not equally so throughout the entire USA. You can meet girls and women with the name Yuna in 23 states – that is about every second of all 50 states in the USA, for example in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia or Hawaii. In relation to the number of residents, the most women and girls with the first name Yuna live in California – here, one in 25,319 bears this beautiful name. In comparison, if we look at all living women and girls in the whole country, only one in 108,802 will turn around if you call her first name Yuna.
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 four letters, the name Yuna is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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.
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 Yuna 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...
