This page shows the Jesse (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1976 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Jesse 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 Jesse'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 Jesse for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Jesse appears in 19 of them, from 1976 to 2025, with 166 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2022, when the table records 23 babies given the name, at rank 191 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1976 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Jesse 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.
