Where Cinthia is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Cinthia has been most common in California (4.8×), Texas (3.1×), and Arizona (2.4×), and least common in Ohio (0.21×).

3,716 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.
