This page shows the Wai (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1974 to 1991. Each row below is one year in which Wai 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 Wai'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 Wai for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Wai appears in 14 of them, from 1974 to 1991, with 68 babies in total. Its largest single year was 1984, when the table records 9 babies given the name, at rank 187 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1974 to 1991; years in which the table records no row for Wai 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.
