Where Dallin is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Dallin has been most common in Utah (68×), Idaho (24×), and Arizona (9.4×), and least common in Texas (0.41×).

3,795 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.
