Head to head

Republic of Ireland · Girls
In 2011, Abaigh was ranked #937 and Sienna #135 among girls in Republic of Ireland.

Abaigh and Sienna over time

Abaigh and Sienna appear together in 1 published list, across 8 years of shared records. Sienna held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Abaigh in 0.

The order between them changed and held in one of those lists — a change in that published list, never a claim that one name displaced the other.

Abaigh reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Sienna in none. Each position is a place inside its own list, so this compares when they peaked and never how high.

Counted list by list. Two names in the same published list are measured on the same scale in the same year, so those comparisons are real — but positions from different lists are not, so nothing here is combined into an overall standing.

Two names moving past each other in a ranking is a fact about the ranking. Namewise does not claim one name displaced the other, that families chose between them, or that either influenced the other — none of that is in this data.
