How Common is Your Birth Day? A New Chart Lays Out All 365 Days by Popularity

Posted by Justin Henriksen on

Ever wondered how many other losers are selfishly sharing YOUR birthday?  Now you can actually figure it out.  Kind of.

--A statistician put together a chart of all 365 days of the year based on the total births on each of those days between 1973 and 1999.  You'll want to check out your date, but here are some highlights.

--The least-popular date for birthdays was February 29th, obviously . . . since it only occurs once every four years on a leap year, when there are actually 366 days in a year. 

--The second least popular day is December 25th.  Apparently that birthday is already TAKEN.

--The most popular date for births is September 16th.  That's JUST about nine months after the holiday season.  And actually, all ten of the most common birthdates are in September. 

--September 11th is the 24th most common . . . but that's now dropping.
