There are 2 of me, and only 911 with my last name. ---

There are 110 of me in the US. Not enough and yet way too many. ---

Going by my first + last name, there are 0 of me. I don’t exist. Going with my middle name + last name (which is what I actually go by), there are 15 of me. I think what throws it the most is that my first name is spelled a little oddly – the silent “e” that is in the normal spelling is dropped. Neither my son nor daughter exist, either. There are 8 of my husband. ---

[QUOTE=mhendo] You’re all doomed. Me and my 3,808 namesakes are going to take over the country. (actually, my namesakes and i, but you know what i mean) [/QUOTE] I’d suggest you make nice with me. I am ubiquitous. There are 5,558 of me. The good news is that we are not all that ambitious despite our vindictiveness when crossed. This like stems from lack of feeling all that special to start with. We have the 96th most popular first name and most popular last name. Now that I’ve theoretically identified myself, good luck finding me amongst my sisters. Needle, meet haystack. Muahahahaha! Anonymity does have its perks. ---

Neat site. It says there are 10 of me. 6222 other people share my last name. I feel sorry for them all. It is apparently the 5760th most common surname. There is at least one person with my name in Kentucky who has tuberculosis… ---

Strange, though. In putting some friends’ names in, a couple surnames come up as zero. They’re both asian names (one Phillipino, one Japanese), but nothing that struck me as particularly bizarre. ---

There were 1,893 of me with my maiden name. It says there are 0 of me now! (Our last name is really rare. ETA: it’s of British origin, we think.) ---

**mhendo** looks menacing, until another member of the Henderson clan, John, comes in and kicks his ass with 4,734. I have the most boring name, ever. ---

Apparently there’s two of me. I find that disturbing. There’s no one with the name I want to change my name to, or even either part. And there’s more Jack Napier’s (34) than Bruce Wayne’s (14). And 79 Joe Kerr’s :eek: ---

It’s a pretty stupid search engine. It says I don’t exist, but I’m all over the internet because of my genealogy research. ---
