Where Jalynn is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jalynn has been most common in Indiana (2.7×), Louisiana (2.5×), and Texas (2.1×), and least common in New Jersey (0.55×).

3,047 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.
