The name Sammy for boys in Scotland
National Records of Scotland figures for first names given to babies whose births were registered in Scotland, 1986 to 2023.
This page shows the Sammy (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1986 to 2023. Each row below is one year in which Sammy 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 Sammy'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 Sammy for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Sammy appears in 10 of them, from 1986 to 2023, with 33 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2023, when the table records 5 babies given the name, at rank 533 among all first names for boys that year.
Figures cover every year from 1986 to 2023; years in which the table records no row for Sammy 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.
