Quinley is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Quinley is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 girls have been named Quinley. In the SmartGenius ranking, Quinley is #2,877 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Quinley.
The first name Quinley is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 49 Americans in total bear this name. And these 49 women are located in only three states: California, Missouri and Utah (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Quinley and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Quinley in relation to it’s female population is Utah. And yet even there, only one in 106,180 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Quinley.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The Q is really rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 0.4% of all common girls' names in the US begin with a Q. Only the letters U and Q are even rarer as the first letter of girls' names. By the way, the most common initial letters for girls’ names are A and S.
With seven letters, the name Quinley has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight 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.
That means that as 0.4% of all girls' names start with a Q, all other letters occur on average more than nine times as often as the Q. Of the comparatively few girls' names that begin with a Q, most are also not very common - the most popular currently is Queen.
If your name is Quinley 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Quinley, you can simply say:
Queen
Unicorn
Igloo
