Natalie and Susanncompared 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.

Natalie and Susann over time
Natalie and Susann appear together in 2 published lists, across 46 years of shared records. Natalie held the stronger position in more years in 2 of them, Susann 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.
Susann reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 2 of those lists, and Natalie 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.
