Sienna and Yanacompared 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.

Republic of Ireland · Girls
In 2025, Sienna was ranked #62 and Yana #718 among girls in Republic of Ireland.
Sienna and Yana over time
Sienna and Yana appear together in 1 published list, across 28 years of shared records. Sienna held the stronger position in more years in 1 of them, Yana in 0.
In none of those lists did their order change and stay changed.
Yana reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 1 of those lists, and Sienna 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.
