The name Kal for boys in Scotland
National Records of Scotland figures for first names given to babies whose births were registered in Scotland, 1989 to 2022.
This page shows the Kal (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1989 to 2022. Each row below is one year in which Kal 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 Kal'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 Kal for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Kal appears in 14 of them, from 1989 to 2022, with 57 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2014, when the table records 6 babies given the name, at rank 490 among all first names for boys that year.
Figures cover every year from 1989 to 2022; years in which the table records no row for Kal 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.
