Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jacky has been most common in Oklahoma (6.1×), Tennessee (5.8×), and Arkansas (4.8×), and least common in Florida (0.32×).

3,998 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.
