This page shows the Roberta (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2017. Each row below is one year in which Roberta 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 Roberta'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 Roberta for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Roberta appears in 20 of them, from 1974 to 2017, with 117 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1975, when the table records 12 babies given the name, at rank 256 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2017; years in which the table records no row for Roberta 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.
