Where Jaren is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jaren has been most common in Utah (16×), Hawaii (6×), and Idaho (3.4×), and least common in North Carolina (0.37×).

2,791 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.
