The name Elissa for girls in Scotland
National Records of Scotland figures for first names given to babies whose births were registered in Scotland, 1979 to 2023.
This page shows the Elissa (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1979 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Elissa 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 Elissa'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 Elissa for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Elissa appears in 21 of them, from 1979 to 2023, with 88 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2015, when the table records 9 babies given the name, at rank 379 among all first names for girls that year.
Figures cover every year from 1979 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Elissa 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.
