This page shows the Jake (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1979 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Jake 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 Jake'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 Jake for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Jake appears in 44 of them, from 1979 to 2025, with 3,280 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2005, when the table records 167 babies given the name, at rank 44 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1979 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Jake 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.
