Claudia and Irynacompared 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.
Norway · Girls
In 1994, Claudia was ranked #381 and Iryna #631 among girls in Norway.
Claudia and Iryna over time
Claudia and Iryna appear together in 1 published list, across 25 years of shared records. Claudia held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Iryna in 0.

Iryna reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Claudia 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.
