Reply to comment by Arquen_Marille in Transition probabilities (shown as percentages) between successive letters in the names of girls born in 2021 in the USA [OC] by kilopeter

Number is the percentage chance of the next letter being the column letter, assuming you're already at the row letter. I.e. if you are at a "Q", there's a 95% chance the next letter will be a "U". This says nothing about the "popularity" of the letter combination by itself.

"A" as a next letter follows most consonants. Not necessarily the second letter in the name.
