1880 produced Daisy's best-ever rank, #48 — right alongside Arthur, elsewhere in this batch, whose own positional peak also landed in the dataset's opening year. The raw count set a separate record much later, 2024: 3,091 births, up 73% from a decade before.
This name's grand total sits at 156,125 births since 1880, a solid middle-of-the-pack figure for this batch.
Star Wars's Daisy Ridley and Normal People's Daisy Edgar-Jones keep it current on screen, alongside two fictional entries — Donald Duck's Daisy Duck and Nintendo's Princess Daisy.
