What the record shows

Recorded by 2 registrars between 2007 and 2023, ranked in 9 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #615, first reached in 2015.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 8 births, registered in England and Wales in 2017.

Its record falls into 6 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 3 years.

A second registrar first ranked it in 2015, and 8 years separate the first registrar to record it from the last.

Every figure here is counted from the seven official registrars Namewise holds. A position is only ever a place within the list that published it, and a record that thins or stops is a fact about what registrars printed — never about how many children received the name.
