Zyriah Zyro

Each line is every baby given the name that year, girls and boys added together — the only count that means the same thing for both names. A line breaks where the name fell below five babies in a year — the point at which the SSA stops publishing it — rather than being drawn through a figure nobody published. A single published year in a gap shows as a dot.

Who was ahead

Of the 25 years in which either name was published, Zyriah for 23 years and Zyro for 2 years. The lead changed hands once.

A rank is a position within one sex’s list for one year, so the two rank rows are not subtracted from one another and the winning column is not marked on them. The living figure is a life-table estimate, not a count.

Which name is older

Half of the Zyriahs alive today are over 13; half the Zyros have not had a first birthday. That is 13 years between them: two names in use at the same time, worn by two different generations.
