Where Rhianna is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Rhianna has been most common in Arizona (2.6×), Florida (2.6×), and Colorado (2.2×), and least common in Massachusetts (0.48×).

3,449 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.
