Antoine vs Ho
Antoine and Hocompared on official birth-registration statistics and Namewise's recorded data. This page states what each name's record shows — it never picks a winner or scores one name against the other.
Head to head
Ranks are only compared within one published list and one year. Two ranks from different years, from a boys' and a girls' list, or from different registrars are not comparable, so they are not placed side by side.
England and Wales · Boys
In 2024, Antoine was ranked #3254 and Ho #5119 among boys in England and Wales.
Antoine and Ho over time
Antoine and Ho appear together in 1 published list, across 15 years of shared records. Antoine held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Ho 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.
Ho reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Antoine 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.
