Where Amin is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Amin has been most common in New York (3.1×), New Jersey (3×), and Pennsylvania (2.7×), and least common in Ohio (0.45×).

1,811 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.
