This page shows the Donna (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2012. Each row below is one year in which Donna 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 Donna'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 Donna for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Donna appears in 34 of them, from 1974 to 2012, with 5,952 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1976, when the table records 454 babies given the name, at rank 14 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2012; years in which the table records no row for Donna 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.
