The first name 
Yvanna

Yvanna is a first name for girls.

Yvanna – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Yvanna in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Yvanna in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Yvanna by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Yvanna ranks at #7,282. That means there are 7,281 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 Yvanna.

Yvanna -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Yvanna 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), Yvanna seemed to be more popular than ever in 2010. Although the name never ranked higher than #4,769, 26 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Yvanna, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Yvanna was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Yvanna in 2022 – originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Yvanna 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.

Yvanna -
at home in California and Texas

Meeting a woman or girl named Yvanna is something really special. Out of all 50 states, women and girls named Yvanna can be found in only two: California and Texas. No other state currently has residents named Yvanna. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Yvanna living in one state or another (if your name is Yvanna and you live outside of California or Texas, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). Either way, the name is quite rare. The best chance of meeting a Yvanna is in California, as there live more women and girls with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in California, only 0.00038% of all female residents are named Yvanna – that’s just one in 261,630! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 94 women with that name. So, if your name is Yvanna, chances are you will never meet another woman with your beautiful first name.

Yvanna has 6 letters 
and begins with a Y

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 six letters, the name Yvanna 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.

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.
