This page shows the Ria (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1979 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Ria 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 Ria'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 Ria for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Ria appears in 42 of them, from 1979 to 2023, with 258 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1982, when the table records 13 babies given the name, at rank 272 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1979 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Ria 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.
