Where Jaycee is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jaycee has been most common in Utah (6.1×), Idaho (4.1×), and Oklahoma (3.6×), and least common in New York (0.19×).

9,554 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.
