Marthe vs Tina
Marthe and Tinacompared 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 2023, Marthe was ranked #448 and Tina #398 among girls in Norway.
Marthe and Tina over time
Marthe and Tina appear together in 1 published list, across 63 years of shared records. Marthe held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Tina in 0.
In none of those lists did their order change and stay changed.
Tina reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Marthe 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.
