Where Vicky is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Vicky has been most common in Iowa (1.7×), South Dakota (1.7×), and Kentucky (1.6×), and least common in Hawaii (0.19×).

50,168 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.
