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 · Girls
In 2013, Ayaan was ranked #4050 and Lynette #5742 among girls in England and Wales.

Ayaan and Lynette over time

Ayaan and Lynette appear together in 1 published list, across 10 years of shared records. Ayaan held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Lynette 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.

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.
