Gruffydd

Statistics count the spelling “Gruffydd” 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

Cover sheet, verbatim: « Baby name statistics are compiled from first names recorded when live births are registered in England and Wales as part of civil registration, a legal requirement. » « The statistics are based only on live births which occurred in the calendar year, as there is no public register of stillbirths. » « Babies born in England and Wales to women whose usual residence is outside England and Wales are included in the statistics for England and Wales as a whole, but excluded from any sub-division of England and Wales. » « The statistics are based on the exact spelling of the name given on the birth certificate. Grouping names with similar pronunciation would change the rankings. Exact names are given so users can group if they wish. » Table 6 counts exclude births where the mother's usual residence was outside England and Wales and where the name was not stated (note 3).

Rounding

No rounding stated on the workbook; counts are published as integers (valueStatus=observed).

Suppression

Note 6, verbatim: « Names with a count of 2 or less have been redacted using S40 of the Freedom of Information Act in order to protect the confidentiality of individuals. » Absence of a name therefore means a count of 2 or less (or not stated), never 0.

Ranking

Rank as published in Table 6 (and Table 1 for the top 100), preserved verbatim; NameStoria never recomputes ranks. Tie handling observed in this edition: tied counts share a rank and the following rank is skipped (e.g. 59, 59, 61). The published ranks are not reconstructible from the listed counts alone: the notes diagnostic shows that from a certain rank downward each published rank is one greater than a competition rank computed from Table 6, which indicates ONS ranked a list containing at least one name not shown in Table 6 (reason not stated on the sheet). Note 1, verbatim: « These rankings have been produced using the exact spelling of the name given at birth registration. Similar names with different spellings have been counted separately. »
