Where Kaydence is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Kaydence has been most common in Wyoming (2.9×), Nevada (2.7×), and Idaho (2.2×), and least common in New Jersey (0.25×).

17,088 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.
