The name Malachy for boys in Scotland

This page shows the Malachy (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 2002 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Malachy 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 Malachy'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 Malachy for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Malachy appears in 20 of them, from 2002 to 2023, with 102 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2009, when the table records 9 babies given the name, at rank 349 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 2002 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Malachy 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.
