    n/a to get to the first link here at work, but my first and last name together are so common that there were 3 of us at my dermatologist's office (same middle name too), they had to seperate us via birthdays. There's one at another location in the global company I work for (different middle name), and I once had poice show up and ask me if I'd ever been to Georgia... yeah when I was 12! ... they left.

    I also really hated in elementary school hearing my first name, turning around to answer, only to hear in the most snotty voice possible "I wasn't talking to youeewww!" grr.

    So I named all my kids with the most unusual names I could come up with, but my next to the last one turned out everybody in that age group started using that first name. He has a last name for a middle name though so it makes up for it!

    59, 573 with the same first name.

    I thought my kids names are much less common though. Guess I'm not as original as I thought ;)

    •There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. named ******* ********. Interesting.

    In Canada, I know at least 4 but there could be a couple more. Most of us are the province of Quebec.

    Family name: there are 1,984 people, being a very french name, it's interesting.

    First name: There are fewer than 1,568 people in the U.S. with the first name Lyne.

    As my married name, there are 382 of me in the US. I'd have suspected more, my surname is a super common Irish name.

    As my maiden name, there are only 19 of me in the US. This doesn't surprise me, my maiden surname is not common at all.

    My first name is 182nd in popularity.

    There are 45,464 people in the U.S. with my first name. There are 704,185 people in the U.S. with my last name. And there are 102 people in the U.S. with the same name as myself (first and last).

    I don't think this is very accurate. Based on this information, I know 20% of the people with my same name (I know approx. 20 other people who have the same name as mines, mostly relatives). But then again I would have to take into account that the way my first name is spelled, is a misspelling. When properly spelled, there are only 32 people in the U.S. with my same name (first and last).
