    Obviously not common enough because I didn't have to put a number next to it.

    My first name, not Lucy, was in the top 10 when I was born.
    My maiden name was a last name shared with a popular TV couple. So I always got, " You mean like..." Yes, I'm related to fictional characters. :noway:
    My married name was Americanized when my husbands grandmother came to America. Its a common name with an uncommon spelling.

    My name is so uncommon that if you google me, I'm the only person who comes up.

    My first name is mostly used as a middle name - Lynn. Don't hear it very much as a first name. And with all the different spellings, I haven't met anyone else who spells it without an "e" at the end with the 2 "n"s. Usually see it Lyn or Lynne.
    I work with a Lynn , same spelling as you, you need to come to North London :)

    I share my first name with the Queen here, so pretty common really.
    My surname's before and after marriage are both foreign and hard to pronounce and spell so a bit harder to find. Altho I share my full name with a few in the US, I think in the UK it may still be just me.

    My MFP name is rare since it's really all of my kid's first initial.
    My real name is common but the spelling is different and in my 36 years never met someone with the same spelling.

    MY first name was the most popular girl name in the year I was born and has remained in the top 20 most of ym life. However if you have my last name you are either related to me (somehow) or your a fictional family from a childrens series

    Name I go by, Resa, is apparently VERY uncommon and most people look at me funny when I introduce myself.

    Last name is moderately common, but I'm ok with it because I can trace my dad's family back to signing the constitution and then a general in the Civil War. :)

    My name is only uncommon for a person of my age. Get down to 20 somethings and teenagers -- and younger -- and it's pretty d*** popular.

    My first name, Lucy, isn't all that common anymore. It's not precisely uncommon, but it's just really old. My middle name is even older. I was named after my grandmothers.

    My last name is far more common as a first name than a last name.

    I hate my MFP name and one day I'll get around to changing it.

    My real life name is far too common, I believe that there were like 4 girls in my grade with the same name... My screen name, not so much... random letters and numbers aren't super trendy screen names.
