This page shows the Shelagh (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 1984. Each row below is one year in which Shelagh 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 Shelagh'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 Shelagh for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Shelagh appears in 9 of them, from 1974 to 1984, with 38 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1974, when the table records 7 babies given the name, at rank 330 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 1984; years in which the table records no row for Shelagh 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.
