The use of the forename Nicholas for girls (from Greek "victory (of the) people") was prevalent in the early 19th century in the counties of Ayrshire and Dumfriesshire, Scotland.
The 1881 Census for the Lowlands of Scotland shows that Nicholas was more commonly a female name than a male name and the male equivalent thereabouts was more likely to be Nichol.
William Hogg, linen weaver/merchant and Nicholas Hunter married in Oldhamstocks on 20th May 1814
