Where Roxie is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Roxie has been most common in Kentucky (4.7×), Mississippi (4.1×), and Arkansas (3.7×), and least common in New York (0.06×).

10,048 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.
