Where Henri is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Henri has been most common in Massachusetts (4.1×), California (2.9×), and New York (2.8×), and least common in Michigan (0.48×).

1,839 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.
