There is no standard size. But you should review your local building codes to make sure all clearances are met. Where I am from the center of the toilet must be 15 inches from the wall. This means the narrowest room allowed would be 30 inches wide. Again there must be a specific distance from the front of the bowl to the wall. This number is different depending on where you build. I wouldn't sugest the minimum unless you are tight on space. My advice would be to try out some public bathroom stalls until you find one that's just right. Then measure it.
