Jolanta 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.

What the record shows

Recorded by 2 registrars between 1955 and 2015, ranked in 39 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #151, first reached in 1968.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 35 births, registered in Norway in 1968.

Its record falls into 2 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 22 years.

A second registrar first ranked it in 2015, and 60 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.

Jolanta was ranked #151 in Norway · Girls in 1968. 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.

Jolanta 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 Jolanta without appearing here.

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.
