This page shows the Anthony (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Anthony 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 Anthony'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 Anthony for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Anthony appears in 52 of them, from 1974 to 2025, with 4,759 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1976, when the table records 207 babies given the name, at rank 44 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Anthony 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.
