This page shows the Josephine (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Josephine 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 Josephine'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 Josephine for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Josephine appears in 52 of them, from 1974 to 2025, with 591 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1975, when the table records 27 babies given the name, at rank 171 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Josephine 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.
