This page shows the Bella (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1998 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Bella 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 Bella'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 Bella for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Bella appears in 22 of them, from 1998 to 2025, with 892 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2019, when the table records 76 babies given the name, at rank 61 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1998 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Bella 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.
