The name Lily for girls in Scotland

This page shows the Lily (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1978 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Lily 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 Lily'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 Lily for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Lily appears in 39 of them, from 1978 to 2025, with 5,573 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2011, when the table records 491 babies given the name, at rank 2 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1978 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Lily 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.
