Hattie by decade
Among all names given to American babies, its best decade was the 1880s, when it ranked #50. The largest share of babies named Hattie, 38.3%, were born between 1901 and 1927, the Greatest Generation's birth years.

Where Hattie is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Hattie has been most common in Mississippi (6.9×), South Carolina (6.4×), and Alabama (4.5×), and least common in Massachusetts (0.05×).
65,819 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.
