This page shows the Caitlin (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1976 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Caitlin 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 Caitlin'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 Caitlin for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Caitlin appears in 46 of them, from 1976 to 2025, with 6,986 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1998, when the table records 580 babies given the name, at rank 6 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1976 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Caitlin 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.
