This page shows the Alison (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2021. Each row below is one year in which Alison was recorded as a first name for girls in Scotland: the number of babies given the name that year and the name's rank among Alison's first-name rivals that year — that is, the rank the source table itself gives the row, among all first names for girls that year.

The record for Alison for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Alison appears in 44 of them, from 1974 to 2021, with 5,666 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1974, when the table records 453 babies given the name, at rank 16 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2021; years in which the table records no row for Alison for girls 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.
