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.

Charlotte and Morgan over time
Charlotte and Morgan appear together in 4 published lists, across 92 years of shared records. Charlotte held the stronger position in more years in 4 of them, Morgan in 0.
In none of those lists did their order change and stay changed.
Morgan reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 3 of those lists, and Charlotte 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.
