Zavion is a male first name.
Zavion is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth boy, and therefore ranks at 1390 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,389 boys 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 Zavion.
Zavion is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Zavion cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #924 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2009. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Zavion, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their son. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Zavion seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Zavion was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
73 babies were named Zavion in 2022 - that's 1 in 2,211,315 newborn boys. With this number, the boys' name Zavion ranked 1,841 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
The odds that a man or boy named Zavion lives in your home state are about the same as betting on heads or tails in a coin toss. This boy’s name is quite popular, but not equally so throughout the entire USA. You can meet boys and men with the name Zavion in 24 states – which is obviously nearly every second of all 50 states in the USA, for example in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado or Florida. In relation to the number of residents, the most men and boys with the first name Zavion live in North Carolina – here, one in 19,939 bears this name. In comparison, if we look at all living men and boys in the whole country, only one in 96,321 will turn around if you call his first name Zavion.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter Z is quite rare as a first letter for boys' names: only 2.4% of all common boys' names in the US begin with Z. The most common first letters of boys' names, by the way, are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With six letters, the name Zavion 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.
Therefore: As 2.4% of all boys' names begin with a Z, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Interesting detail: of all the names that begin with Z, Zachary is the most common.
If your name is Zavion 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...
