Enter your last name into the Wikipedia search; link your favorite result here. Relevance be damned, go for :eek: if you want to – I did. No, really, my last name appears on that page.
Bleh. Mine are all boring. Just people who share the same last name. Yours is cool.
There’s a Benson-class destroyer named after me! The USS Mayo. Who knew?

Meh, when I do it I just get a laundry list of famous people. I guess my last name is kinda common.

My last name is extremely common, as well as being a common - very common - English noun.
So, I get a disambiguation page. With, 2, 3 dozen entries on it. My first and last name also leads to a disambiguation page. With a dozen or so.
My surname is far too common. My full name yields:
Red telephone box
My Dope name gets me nothing. My last name gets me a list of people with the same last name, or simply the information that my last name is another word for penis. 'Cause I didn’t learn that in grade school. :dubious:
71176 results, and the first several pages have the name in the title.

Come for a cruise on my Spruance Class Destroyer! A Pirate-free vacation gar-un-teed!
