Ivey is a unisex first name, but it has been primarily given to girls for a number of years.
Few children have been named Ivey in recent years. Although it is used several times each year, only approximately 4 out of 100,000 children are currently called Ivey. Whether you’re a boy or a girl, you will most likely be the only person with the special name Ivey at your school. In our SmartGenius ranking, Ivey is number *** on the list of most common first names.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter I is quite rare as an initial letter for first names: only 1.6% of all common first names in the US begin with I, which means that this initial occurs only about half as often as the other letters on average. But I is by no means the rarest initial. While U, X and Q are the least common initials of first names, the most common first letters of given names are A, J and K.
With four letters, the name Ivey 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.
From this follows that if 1.5% of all first names begin with an I, this initial letter is significantly less common than the other letters on average.
If your name is Ivey 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...
