Where Krystle is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Krystle has been most common in Hawaii (2.2×), New Mexico (1.7×), and New Hampshire (1.6×), and least common in Kentucky (0.36×).

12,003 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.
