Where Dannie is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Dannie has been most common in Kentucky (4.3×), Alabama (3.7×), and Mississippi (3.7×), and least common in Pennsylvania (0.16×).
5,907 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.
