The name Deacon for boys in Scotland

This page shows the Deacon (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 2001 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Deacon 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 Deacon'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 Deacon for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Deacon appears in 18 of them, from 2001 to 2023, with 132 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2008, when the table records 14 babies given the name, at rank 264 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 2001 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Deacon 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.
