Where Kimberlee is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Kimberlee has been most common in Utah (4.9×), Oregon (2.5×), and Washington (2.5×), and least common in Louisiana (0.13×).

13,921 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.
