This page shows the Deborah (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 Deborah 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 Deborah'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 Deborah for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Deborah appears in 39 of them, from 1974 to 2025, with 4,414 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1974, when the table records 340 babies given the name, at rank 25 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 Deborah 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.
