It saw Noah take top spot – the first time Jack has been beated in 14 years.
Big climbers included Luca, while many traditional names continued their slide down the charts, including David (73rd place), Michael (77th place), and Mathew (52nd).
There was also an increase in the total number of different names chosen by parents for their babies.
NRS Statistician Daniel Burns explained: “Back in the 70s when David was the most popular name there were upwards of 1,700 babies a year with the top boys name. Since then fertility has declined, meaning there are fewer births, but with more names in use Noah can claim the top spot with 373 baby boys given the name in 2022.”
It also means that there are more names chosen for a single baby.
Here are 18 that caught our eye.
17. Nixon
Meaning 'the son of Greek Goddess of victory', one Scottish baby was called Nixon last year. It's a name that's perhaps most associated with disgraced American president Richard Nixon. Photo: Canva/Getty Images
18. Wojtek
The world's best-known Wojtek was a bear who was adopted by Polish troops in World War 2. He helped the soldiers with many tasks, including moving crates of ammunition, and spent his retirement in Edinburgh Zoo. A statue of him sits in the city's Princes Street Gardens - perhaps inspiring one Scottish family to use the name in 2022. Photo: Canva/Getty Images
