Tulisa across 3 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.

Where Tulisa is officially recorded

3 official registrars have recorded Tulisa, between 2009 and 2018. 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.

Registrar	Recorded	Years	Its own highest position
England and Wales	2009–2018	10	#375 in 2012
Northern Ireland	2011–2012	2	#330 in 2012
Republic of Ireland	2012–2013	2	#510 in 2012

What the record shows

Recorded by 3 registrars between 2009 and 2018, ranked in 10 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #330, first reached in 2012.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 126 births, registered in England and Wales in 2012.

A second registrar first ranked it in 2011, and 3 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.

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.
