Cameron and Karliecompared 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.

Cameron and Karlie over time
Cameron and Karlie appear together in 1 published list, across 25 years of shared records. Cameron held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Karlie 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.
Karlie reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Cameron 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.
