About this dataset and its counting rules

Statistics count the spelling “Artúr” as recorded by the publisher. When a spelling has several independent origins, the counts are not split between them. Counts measure births. Gaps are years without a published value, not zeros.

Rates per million are unavailable for this series because no compatible denominator has been imported.

Universe: First given names on Irish birth registrations; CSO tables VSA50 (boys) and VSA60 (girls). From 2017, births registered during the calendar year.
Rounding: Published integer counts retained without rounding.
Suppression: CSO publishes names with three or more occurrences. Null cells are not emitted; absence is unknown, not zero.
Ranking: Published ranks from VSA50C02 and VSA60C02 retained unchanged, including ties.
