Where Emmaline is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Emmaline has been most common in Utah (6.4×), Tennessee (3.3×), and Idaho (2.8×), and least common in New York (0.42×).

4,155 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.
