Where Raegan is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Raegan has been most common in Utah (2.4×), Idaho (2.1×), and Louisiana (1.6×), and least common in New Mexico (0.26×).

23,284 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.
