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 · Girls
In 2024, Blake was ranked #432 and Mimi #1230 among girls in England and Wales.
Blake and Mimi over time
Blake and Mimi appear together in 1 published list, across 18 years of shared records. Blake held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Mimi 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.
Mimi reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Blake 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.
