What the record shows

Recorded by 1 registrar between 1998 and 2024, ranked in 24 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #853, first reached in 2020.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 42 births, registered in England and Wales in 2020.

Its record falls into 3 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 2 years.

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.

Maysa was ranked #853 in England and Wales · Girls in 2020. 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.

Maysa 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 Maysa without appearing here.
