The name Zak for boys in Scotland
National Records of Scotland figures for first names given to babies whose births were registered in Scotland, 1987 to 2025.
This page shows the Zak (boys) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1987 to 2025. Each row below is one year in which Zak 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 Zak'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 Zak for boys sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Zak appears in 38 of them, from 1987 to 2025, with 1,378 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2008, when the table records 96 babies given the name, at rank 76 among all first names for boys that year.
Figures cover every year from 1987 to 2025; years in which the table records no row for Zak 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.
