Which looks better on your resume/team page?

Hi, all. This is going to sound really stupid and superficial, but it has honestly been bothering me a lot lately. I'm finishing my junior year right now, and I'm on track to graduate cum laude as a math/econ double major.

Seeing all of the people who graduated summa/magna cum laude on their team pages/LinkedIn is making me feel insecure, and I am feeling really bad about this following me for my entire career. I think that if I had only done the econ major, I could have graduated magna or even summa cum laude.

So, my question is: does graduating cum laude with math/econ or summa/magna cum laude with just econ look better? I know there's nothing I can do about this now, but I just wanted to hear what others have to say.
