Things that stand out...

---

* "We" seem to love Mackenzie here in Maryland, with three spellings in our Top 100. *sigh*

---

* "We" also seem to love Riley and in particular the spelling Ryleigh, which is a massive 107 places higher in our state list then compared to national.

---

* Skylar is in the Top 100 in Maryland, but has never been Top 100 nationally, but for some reason "us" Marylanders have taken it to our hearts!

---

General summary...

---

* Names in the Maryland Top 100 not in the National Top 100; Annabelle, Brielle, Gabrielle, Isabelle, Jada, Jordyn, Kendall, Laila, McKenzie, Makenzie, Paige, Rachel, Ryleigh and Skylar.

---

* Names in the National Top 100 not in the Maryland Top 100; Alexa, Andrea, Aubree, Camila, Ellie, Eva, Jocelyn, Lydia, Maria, Mariah, Melanie, Scarlett, Stella and Violet.
