This page shows the Ashley (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2019. Each row below is one year in which Ashley 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 Ashley'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 Ashley for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Ashley appears in 30 of them, from 1974 to 2019, with 247 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1989, when the table records 14 babies given the name, at rank 162 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2019; years in which the table records no row for Ashley 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.
