The name Hope for girls in Scotland
National Records of Scotland figures for first names given to babies whose births were registered in Scotland, 1989 to 2025.
This page shows the Hope (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1989 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Hope 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 Hope'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 Hope for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Hope appears in 37 of them, from 1989 to 2025, with 1,221 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2019, when the table records 69 babies given the name, at rank 68 among all first names for girls that year.
Figures cover every year from 1989 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Hope 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.
