Zhana is a female first name.
Recently, the name Zhana 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 Zhana. That means that a girl named Zhana is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. Of all Americans currently living, not even one in 100,000 would answer if you shouted out the name Zhana.
If you’re looking for someone named Zhana, you might want to head to North Carolina. Why North Carolina of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no women or girls named Zhana 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 Zhana living in one state or another, but in any case the name is extremely rare. (If your name happens to be Zhana and you live outside of North Carolina, 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 North Carolina, the name Zhana is not really that common – there are only 5 women and girls with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00012% of all female residents of North Carolina – 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 Z is quite rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 1.9% of all common girls' names in the US begin with Z. By the way, the most common first letters of girls' names are A, S and M, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.
With five letters, the name Zhana is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five 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.
That means that with 1.9% of all girls' names beginning with a Z, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are girls' names with Z that are quite popular, the most common at present is Zoe.
If your name is Zhana 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...
