The name Gail for girls in Scotland

This page shows the Gail (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2008. Each row below is one year in which Gail 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 Gail'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 Gail for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Gail appears in 29 of them, from 1974 to 2008, with 1,554 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1975, when the table records 180 babies given the name, at rank 53 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2008; years in which the table records no row for Gail 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.
