Ebrahim and Garrycompared 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.

England and Wales · Boys
In 2023, Ebrahim was ranked #2160 and Garry #4991 among boys in England and Wales.

Ebrahim and Garry over time

Ebrahim and Garry appear together in 1 published list, across 26 years of shared records. Ebrahim held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Garry 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.

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.
