The name Claire for girls in Scotland

This page shows the Claire (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Claire 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 Claire'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 Claire for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Claire appears in 51 of them, from 1974 to 2025, with 16,976 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1983, when the table records 985 babies given the name, at rank 2 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Claire 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.
