Where Trevor is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Trevor has been most common in Alaska (2.9×), Utah (2.8×), and Nevada (2.4×), and least common in District of Columbia (0.38×).

159,326 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.
