Where Claribel is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Claribel has been most common in New York (5.1×), California (2.7×), and Illinois (1.5×), and least common in Pennsylvania (0.53×).

1,181 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.
