Recorded by 1 registrar between 2000 and 2024, ranked in 20 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #1,522, first reached in 2011.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 15 births, registered in England and Wales in 2011.

Its record falls into 4 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 3 years.

Ridwaan 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 Ridwaan 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.
