The name Joan for girls in Scotland

This page shows the Joan (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2013. Each row below is one year in which Joan was recorded as a first name for girls in Scotland: the number of babies given the name that year and the name's rank among Joan's first-name rivals that year — that is, the rank the source table itself gives the row, among all first names for girls that year.

The record for Joan for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Joan appears in 19 of them, from 1974 to 2013, with 265 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1974, when the table records 36 babies given the name, at rank 144 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2013; years in which the table records no row for Joan for girls 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.
