Yasin is a first name typically given to boys, but in rare cases also used as a girls name.
Yasin 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 1423 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,422 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 Yasin.
In fact, the name Yasin 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), Yasin seemed to be more popular than ever in 2020. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,268, 127 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Yasin, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Yasin was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Yasin a few times. Among all newborn boys it ranked #1,481 - with a total of 106 baby boys. 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 boys with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
The odds of having a man or boy named Yasin in your home state are about the same as the chance for a white Christmas in New York City – in both cases they are less than 30%. More precisely, the first name Yasin is registered in 18 states, among which are Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia or Illinois. In proportion to the male population, most men and boys with the first name Yasin live in New Jersey, but even there the name is rather special – on average, you would have to ask 13,663 men and boys in New Jersey for their name before you meet one who answers with Yasin.
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 boys' names: only 1.7% of all common boys' names in the US begin with Y. By the way, the most common first letters of boys' names are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With five letters, the name Yasin 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.
Since 1.7% of all boys’ names begin with a Y, this initial occurs less than 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 boys’ name that starts with Y is Yahir.
If your name is Yasin 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...
