The name Benedict for boys in Scotland

This page shows the Benedict (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Benedict 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 Benedict'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 Benedict for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Benedict appears in 33 of them, from 1974 to 2023, with 165 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2005, when the table records 10 babies given the name, at rank 274 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Benedict 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.
