This page shows the Derry (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1991 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Derry 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 Derry'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 Derry for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Derry appears in 22 of them, from 1991 to 2025, with 94 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2012, when the table records 9 babies given the name, at rank 361 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1991 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Derry 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.
