Each card shows the state's current #1 girls' and boys' name over 2016–2025, across all 50 states plus DC. State figures are censored more heavily than national ones — a name needs 5 uses in a state in a year to be counted there at all — so state numbers never sum to the national total.

Counts are based on U.S. births and are tracked separately for girls and boys. Names used fewer than 5 times in a year aren’t published for that year, so totals here are a floor — the shortfall is largest in the sparse early years.
