This page shows the Sonya (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 2002. Each row below is one year in which Sonya 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 Sonya'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 Sonya for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Sonya appears in 20 of them, from 1974 to 2002, with 188 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1974, when the table records 30 babies given the name, at rank 163 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 2002; years in which the table records no row for Sonya 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.
