Where Maryann is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Maryann has been most common in New Jersey (3.8×), Pennsylvania (3×), and Connecticut (2.9×), and least common in Tennessee (0.03×).

57,021 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.
