Cynan vs Morten

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 · Boys

  In 2015, Cynan was ranked #2707 and Morten #4747 among boys in England and Wales.

Cynan and Morten over time

Cynan and Morten appear together in 1 published list, across 11 years of shared records. Cynan held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Morten 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.

Morten reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Cynan 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.

Two names moving past each other in a ranking is a fact about the ranking. Namewise does not claim one name displaced the other, that families chose between them, or that either influenced the other — none of that is in this data.
