What the record shows

Recorded by 2 registrars between 1964 and 1998, ranked in 22 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #154, first reached in 1964.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 24 births, registered in Republic of Ireland in 1964.

Its record falls into 5 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 10 years.

A second registrar first ranked it in 1998, and 34 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.

Assumpta was ranked #154 in Republic of Ireland · Girls in 1964. These are the names immediately either side of it on that published list — a fact about the registrar's own output, not a similarity judgement.

Assumpta and the names beside it

Two names in the same published list are measured on the same scale, in the same year, by the same registrar — so these are positions that genuinely passed each other, not a similarity judgement. Drawn from the 2,573 names with a recorded popularity standing (common, familiar, uncommon), so a name outside that set could have passed Assumpta without appearing here.
