This page shows the Hunter (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1992 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Hunter was recorded as a first name for boys in Scotland: the number of babies given the name that year and the name's rank among Hunter's first-name rivals that year — that is, the rank the source table itself gives the row, among all first names for boys that year.

The record for Hunter for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Hunter appears in 22 of them, from 1992 to 2025, with 1,369 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2019, when the table records 169 babies given the name, at rank 27 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1992 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Hunter for boys 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.
