How common is your NAME
Replies

My last names (yes two) are both very uncommon. One pops up in the Philippines (with which I have no common ancestory) but is likely from Roumania or Yugoslavia and means "furrow" or "tea kettle". The other last name is Basque. Combined with a rarish first name which, in it's Spanish version is not really used in English -- well, I use the variant names in different countries because most people mispronounce something.
i think if I ever publish a book with my full name, most of my friends would not know it was from me. C'est la vie.0 -
According to namestatistics.com, my last name "is the #6665 most common last name... Around 5000 people have" my last name. My first name, though, seems pretty unique. namestatistics.com says "RINDA is a very rare female first name."
Very few females in the US have my first name, and according to a couple of other sites, it hasn't been used since 1885, which could have been my great-grandmother. I'm told I'm named after her.0 -
three of my cousins have the exact first and last name as I do... thats what happens when you are Italian.0

LOL, I just put my last name into that and it couldn't even give me a statistic. It just said:
"_______ is a very rare last name
Very few last names in the US are _________
Be proud of your unique last name!"
Ironic considering I'll be taking my husband's name soon and it's apparently the #4 most common last name in the US. Haha.
"Becca" was also apparently quite popular the year I was born, or at least where I grew up. There was ALWAYS at least one other Becca in every class I had in school!0 -
