Where Kamden is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Kamden has been most common in Utah (2.6×), Idaho (2.3×), and Oklahoma (2.1×), and least common in Massachusetts (0.17×).

11,387 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.
