This page shows the Barry (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2022. Each row below is one year in which Barry 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 Barry'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 Barry for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Barry appears in 47 of them, from 1974 to 2022, with 6,095 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1979, when the table records 502 babies given the name, at rank 20 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2022; years in which the table records no row for Barry 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.
