This page shows the Isaac (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1978 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Isaac 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 Isaac'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 Isaac for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Isaac appears in 41 of them, from 1978 to 2025, with 1,976 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2017, when the table records 126 babies given the name, at rank 45 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1978 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Isaac 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.
