Where Jevon is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jevon has been most common in Florida (3×), New York (2×), and Ohio (1.7×), and least common in Indiana (0.49×).

2,620 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.
