The name Sarah for girls in Scotland

This page shows the Sarah (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Sarah 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 Sarah'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 Sarah for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Sarah appears in 52 of them, from 1974 to 2025, with 17,895 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1990, when the table records 775 babies given the name, at rank 3 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Sarah 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.
