The Least Common Birthdays
December 25 (Christmas Day) is the least common birthday, while January 1 (New Year's Day) is the second least common. December 24 (Christmas Eve) also makes the list as the 3rd least common birthday while July 4 (Independence Day) is the 4th least common birthday.
What are the rarest birthdays? Surprisingly, none is in February. They cluster around holidays. December 25, January 1, December 24, July 4, January 2, December 26, November 27, November 23, November 25 and October 31st.
February 3rd is the only day where no one in history has ever been born. Despite much scientific study, there is no explanation for this phenomena. Historically it has been referred to as "the empty day" or "nobody's birthday". The years range from late 1700s to the 2010s.
July through October tends to be the most popular birth months in the United States. August is the overall most popular month for birthdays, which makes sense, considering a late August birthday means December conception.
About 385,000 babies are born each day according to the UN. That adds up to more than 140 million a year. The 140 million extra babies per year join a world population projected to reach 10 billion people by 2056.
Here are some of the notable people celebrating birthdays today, including Amal Clooney, Blythe Danner, Daddy Yankee, Isla Fisher, Maura Tierney, Morgan Fairchild, Nathan Lane and more.
It is difficult to come to the exact number of births every day since not all births are registered or recorded. The UN estimates that around 385,000 babies are born each day around the world (140 million a year). This number will remain relatively stable in the 50 years from 2020 to 2070.
Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are the best days to have intercourse and conceive a baby. Babies made on these days are lucky and blessed with a long healthy life.
Your golden birthday is the year you turn the same age as your birthday – for example, turning 25 on the 25th, or 31 on the 31st. If you've ever wondered where the tradition comes from, you're not alone. Joan Bramsch, a midwestern author, started celebrating her five children's golden birthdays in the 1950s.
Additionally, the golden birthday is considered especially lucky and special since it only occurs once in a lifetime. If you're over the age of 31 and are feeling sad you may have missed your golden birthday, have no fear! Turning the age of your birth year is considered a platinum birthday.
According to real birth data compiled from 20 years of American births, mid-September is the most birthday-packed time of the year, with September 9th being the most popular day to be born in America, followed closely by September 19th.
But because the day only occurs once every four years, it's obvious it would yield the least amount of birthdays. The rarest birthday of the 365 annual calendar days is Christmas Day, Dec. 25. If your birthday is New Year's Day or Christmas Eve, you also have uncommon birthdays.
Your April baby's birthday is pretty rare.
Your little one is unlikely to need to share the limelight on their birthday because April birthdays are not super common. Only two April birthdates made their way into the top 200 most popular birthdays (April 4th at 144th and April 11th at 189th), while 11 landed below 300.
Here are some of the notable people celebrating birthdays today, including Big Boi, Garrett Morris, Harry Styles, Jason Isbell, Lauren Conrad, Michael C. Hall, Ronda Rousey and more.
February babies' horoscope sign is Aquarius or Pisces.
If your baby is born before February 19, they'll be an Aquarius, a sign associated with intelligence, independence, and quirkiness.
