Where Constantine is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Constantine has been most common in New York (5.2×), Illinois (2.7×), and Pennsylvania (2.1×), and least common in Texas (0.43×).

3,437 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.
