This page shows the Jimmy (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1988 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Jimmy 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 Jimmy'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 Jimmy for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Jimmy appears in 16 of them, from 1988 to 2025, with 59 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2010, when the table records 6 babies given the name, at rank 426 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1988 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Jimmy 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.
