Where Aditya is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Aditya has been most common in New Jersey (5.2×), California (2.5×), and Washington (2.5×), and least common in North Carolina (0.52×).

4,080 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.
