This page shows the Laila (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1984 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Laila 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 Laila'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 Laila for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Laila appears in 27 of them, from 1984 to 2025, with 432 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2011, when the table records 47 babies given the name, at rank 96 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1984 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Laila 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.
