The name Karen for girls in Scotland

This page shows the Karen (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2014. Each row below is one year in which Karen 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 Karen'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 Karen for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Karen appears in 39 of them, from 1974 to 2014, with 9,223 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1975, when the table records 826 babies given the name, at rank 2 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2014; years in which the table records no row for Karen 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.
