Ayat by the numbers

In 2025, 317 babies in England and Wales were named Ayat. In the US, 81 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.

For the size of the two countries, it is given far more often in England and Wales than in the US.

Its best year in America so far is the most recent one on record, which means it was still climbing when the records end.
