This page shows the Lynsey (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2009. Each row below is one year in which Lynsey 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 Lynsey'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 Lynsey for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Lynsey appears in 34 of them, from 1974 to 2009, with 4,354 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1983, when the table records 360 babies given the name, at rank 15 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2009; years in which the table records no row for Lynsey 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.
