Where Kylie is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Kylie has been most common in Nevada (2.6×), Utah (2.1×), and Alaska (1.9×), and least common in District of Columbia (0.17×).

120,807 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.
