Where Tyree is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Tyree has been most common in District of Columbia (3×), Maryland (2.9×), and Virginia (2.2×), and least common in Connecticut (0.24×).

11,451 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.
