This page shows the Olaf (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 2007 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Olaf 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 Olaf'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 Olaf for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Olaf appears in 14 of them, from 2007 to 2023, with 65 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2014, when the table records 8 babies given the name, at rank 399 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 2007 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Olaf 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.
