Where Eloisa is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Eloisa has been most common in New Mexico (18×), Texas (7.6×), and California (2.5×), and least common in New York (0.1×).

4,901 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.
