Where Abdiel is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Abdiel has been most common in Arizona (3.6×), Texas (3.4×), and Florida (2.5×), and least common in Ohio (0.15×).

6,318 births recorded by state, 1910–2025. 2× means twice as common as nationally. States with fewer than 30 such births are left blank, and SSA withholds any year with fewer than 5 in a state, so small states read low.
