The name Aedan for boys in Scotland

This page shows the Aedan (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1997 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Aedan was recorded as a first name for boys in Scotland: the number of babies given the name that year and the name's rank among Aedan's first-name rivals that year — that is, the rank the source table itself gives the row, among all first names for boys that year.

The record for Aedan for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Aedan appears in 25 of them, from 1997 to 2023, with 198 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2002, when the table records 21 babies given the name, at rank 167 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1997 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Aedan for boys are simply not listed. The publisher suppresses names with a total count of 2 or less in Scotland, so no figure here stands below 3.
