The name Yahya for boys in Scotland

This page shows the Yahya (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1996 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Yahya 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 Yahya'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 Yahya for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Yahya appears in 18 of them, from 1996 to 2025, with 141 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2025, when the table records 27 babies given the name, at rank 163 among all first names for boys that year.

Figures cover every year from 1996 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Yahya 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.
