Where Bevan is officially recorded

|---|---|---|---|
| New Zealand | 1973–1981 | 8 | #59 in 1978 |
| England and Wales | 1996–2025 | 26 | #845 in 1997 |

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.
