This page shows the Gwen (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2020. Each row below is one year in which Gwen 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 Gwen'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 Gwen for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Gwen appears in 26 of them, from 1974 to 2020, with 212 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1975, when the table records 22 babies given the name, at rank 192 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2020; years in which the table records no row for Gwen 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.
