Where Noelia is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Noelia has been most common in Texas (4.4×), Arizona (2.9×), and California (2.4×), and least common in Virginia (0.4×).

5,691 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.
