How to read this chart

A rank is a position in one registrar's list for one year.
Ranks from different countries are separate scales, so compare shapes, not numbers.
A rise in rank can be a small change in births, especially far down a list.

Fabio 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.

Fabio by decade in England and Wales · Boys

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 Fabio is officially recorded

2 official registrars have recorded Fabio, between 1975 and 2025, in 31 of those 51 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.

Each mark is a year the registrar recorded the name; the diamond is that registrar's highest position. Gaps can mean a year was not published, not that the name went unused.

Registrar	Recorded	Years	Its own highest position
Republic of Ireland	1975–2017	6	#321 in 1975
England and Wales	1996–2025	30	#586 in 1999

Its high point came 24 years earlier in Republic of Ireland (1975) than in England and Wales (1999).

No registrar recorded it for 20 years after 1975; it appears again in 1996.

What the record shows

Recorded by 2 registrars between 1975 and 2025, ranked in 31 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #321, first reached in 1975.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 45 births, registered in England and Wales in 2007.

Its record falls into 2 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 20 years.

A second registrar first ranked it in 1996, and 21 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.

Fabio 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 2,576 names with a recorded popularity standing (common, familiar, uncommon), so a name outside that set could have passed Fabio without appearing here.
