Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Hassan has been most common in Michigan (3.9×), New Jersey (3.5×), and New York (2.2×), and least common in Indiana (0.14×).

10,118 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.
