Where Yanet is most common

Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Yanet has been most common in California (5.8×), Texas (3.3×), and Arizona (2.5×), and least common in Illinois (0.76×).

1,294 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.
