Where Joseluis is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Joseluis has been most common in California (6.1×), Arizona (4.9×), and Texas (3×), and least common in New York (0.21×).

3,100 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.

One first name in the 2020 Census spelled within a letter or two of Joseluis, most common first.
