Where Rosaura is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Rosaura has been most common in Texas (5.4×), California (4.4×), and New York (1.1×), and least common in Illinois (0.55×).

1,574 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.
