Keerat vs Teddy

Keerat and Teddycompared 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, Keerat was ranked #4991 and Teddy #23 among boys in England and Wales.

  • England and Wales · Girls

    In 2024, Keerat was ranked #1819 and Teddy #5891 among girls in England and Wales.

Keerat and Teddy over time

Keerat and Teddy appear together in 2 published lists, across 21 years of shared records. Teddy held the stronger position in more years in 2 of them, Keerat 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.

Each reached its own highest recorded position first in 1 of the lists they share.

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.
