Aneta across 2 official records

Each registrar publishes its own list, so these figures are read down a row, never across one. A position in one country is not comparable with a position in another, and Namewise never combines them into a single ranking. The birth counts do not compare across rows either, for a different reason: England and Wales registers roughly thirty times as many births a year as Northern Ireland, so a larger total says which registrar recorded it as much as how widely the name was given.

Aneta by decade in Norway · Girls

Births registered with the name in each decade of this one list, with the number of years the list covers in that decade. Bars are scaled on births a year, which is the figure that compares between decades — a decade the list only partly covers has a smaller total without being a quieter decade. Figures belong to this registrar alone and do not carry to another.

Where Aneta is officially recorded

3 official registrars have recorded Aneta, between 1970 and 2025, in 43 of those 56 years. Each registrar publishes for its own population on its own methodology, so the positions below are each one country's own ranking and are not comparable with one another.

Registrar	Recorded	Years	Its own highest position
Norway	1970–1997	28	#185 in 1982
England and Wales	2000–2025	15	#2925 in 2017
Republic of Ireland	2009	1	#582 in 2009

Its high point came 35 years earlier in Norway (1982) than in England and Wales (2017).

No registrar recorded it for 6 years after 2001; it appears again in 2008.

What the record shows

Recorded by 3 registrars between 1970 and 2025, ranked in 43 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #185, first reached in 1982.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 30 births, registered in Norway in 1982.

Its record falls into 7 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 6 years.

A second registrar first ranked it in 2000, and 39 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.

Absence from this list does not mean the name isn't genuinely meaningful or widely used — only that Namewise hasn't sourced and reviewed that content yet. Absence from a specific year or geography above does not prove zero use there either; official statistics only publish names above a minimum threshold.

Official popularity data is available for 3 regions, from 1970 to 2025. Highest recorded position: #185 in Norway in 1982. Source data last verified 2026-07-25.
