The name Nigel for boys in Scotland

This page shows the Nigel (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 1996. Each row below is one year in which Nigel 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 Nigel'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 Nigel for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Nigel appears in 15 of them, from 1974 to 1996, with 126 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1975, when the table records 16 babies given the name, at rank 142 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 1996; years in which the table records no row for Nigel 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.
