Demographics of the Sayce Surname

United Kingdom

The table below compares the ranking of the Sayce surname from 1881 to 1998.[1]

  

The table below lists the top 20 most frequently used forename found, as per the 1841-1911 census records and the 1939 UK Registers for the UK. Included are those records where the census official had spelt the surname incorrectly for people who were Sayce. In addition I have filtered out people whose surname was shown as Sayce, but were in fact not Sayce. Therefore my numbers will differ from those produced by certain genealogical websites which may include the errors mentioned. Because census records very often gave nicknames, I have grouped the real names and relevant nicknames together.
