The name John-Paul for boys in Scotland
National Records of Scotland figures for first names given to babies whose births were registered in Scotland, 1975 to 2018.
This page shows the John-Paul (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1975 to 2018. Each row below is one year in which John-Paul 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 John-Paul'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 John-Paul for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, John-Paul appears in 23 of them, from 1975 to 2018, with 95 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2007, when the table records 8 babies given the name, at rank 354 among all first names for boys that year.
Figures cover every year from 1975 to 2018; years in which the table records no row for John-Paul 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.
