This page shows the Colby (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 2002 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Colby 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 Colby'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 Colby for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Colby appears in 23 of them, from 2002 to 2025, with 257 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2024, when the table records 27 babies given the name, at rank 165 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 2002 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Colby 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.
