Where Valentino is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Valentino has been most common in Nevada (4.6×), Florida (3.8×), and Arizona (3.1×), and least common in Tennessee (0.16×).

8,786 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.
