Grant and Samiulcompared 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.

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 2024, Grant was ranked #4270 and Samiul #2921 among boys in England and Wales.

Grant and Samiul over time

Grant and Samiul appear together in 1 published list, across 27 years of shared records. Grant held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Samiul 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.
