Where Annelise is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Annelise has been most common in Washington (2.2×), California (2.1×), and Florida (2×), and least common in Massachusetts (0.49×).

4,000 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.
