This page shows the Sorcha (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1979 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Sorcha 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 Sorcha'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 Sorcha for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Sorcha appears in 31 of them, from 1979 to 2025, with 155 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2025, when the table records 10 babies given the name, at rank 324 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1979 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Sorcha 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.
