This page shows the Elif (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 2014 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Elif 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 Elif'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 Elif for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Elif appears in 7 of them, from 2014 to 2025, with 26 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2021, when the table records 6 babies given the name, at rank 485 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 2014 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Elif 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.
