The name reached its peak popularity in 2008, though it remains exceedingly uncommon, with no recorded 1-in-N frequency due to low usage. Its trajectory has been stable, with sporadic use year to year. Atzin has not ranked among the top 1,000 names nationally and has no state-level concentration, reflecting its niche appeal primarily within Mexican-American communities.
