Where Jacque is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jacque has been most common in Arizona (7.2×), Kansas (5.4×), and Iowa (4.3×), and least common in Michigan (0.33×).

2,389 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.
