Where Estrella is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Estrella has been most common in New Mexico (8×), Arizona (4.4×), and Nevada (2.9×), and least common in Massachusetts (0.09×).
14,749 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.
