At least 6,837 babies have been given the name since 1990. Years SSA withheld, because fewer than 5 were born, are skipped rather than drawn as zero. * 2025 is the newest year published and it undercounts: a card application is filed some time after a birth.

Where Lexus is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Lexus has been most common in Arizona (1.8×), Tennessee (1.6×), and Indiana (1.6×), and least common in New Jersey (0.4×).

4,955 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.
