Where Lorenza is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Lorenza has been most common in Alabama (8.6×), Texas (5.8×), and New Mexico (5.7×), and least common in California (0.54×).

3,377 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.
