This page shows the Zarah (girls) figures from the National Records of Scotland babies' first names table, which covers every year from 1986 to 2024. Each row below is one year in which Zarah 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 Zarah'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 Zarah for girls sums every one of those rows. Across the years covered, Zarah appears in 21 of them, from 1986 to 2024, with 105 babies in total. Its largest single year was 2024, when the table records 9 babies given the name, at rank 351 among all first names for girls that year.

Figures cover every year from 1986 to 2024; years in which the table records no row for Zarah 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.
