Where Arrie is more common than its national share predicts
Relative to its national share, Arrie is most over-represented in Georgia: since 1910 it was given 2.4 times as often there as its national share each year would predict.
States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among girls’ names in the state in 2025. The file leaves out any state and year with fewer than 5 babies of the name, so small states are undercounted; each ratio compares the state’s births of Arrie with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
Names spelled alike
Of these 8 names spelled alike, given to 109,391 babies since 1880, Arrie is the third most given (1.9% of them). In 2025 it was given to 5 of their 6,479 babies (<1%), the eighth most given that year.
