    First name: 141,328 people
    Last name: fewer than 117 people
    Both: 1 or fewer (lol)

    I'm Canadian, so I'm not that one person hahaha.

    My sister is the same except for her first name is fewer than 1,570 people.

      There are about 65,000 with my first name.
      117 with my last name.
      But with both names there can be only one!

        There's a group on facebook called We Are Michael Burns. Apparently it's one of the most popular names in the US. My friend's a member. He said it's a joke that they all have trouble getting through the airport because one of them somewhere did something naughty and messed it up.

          So, I put some of my friends' names in there to see what came up. Then I made a name up.
          Used a very common last name, but what I thought to be a rather unique first name.

            517 share my surname, but only 1 of *me*

            And I happen to know my paternal line takes its surname from a single man who came into the country in 1692, though other parts of his side is descended from a Mayflower immigrant and a founder of New Amsterdam. Mom's side originally came here in 1740 to Northkill, in Berks County PA.
            I'm descended from the Mayflower, too.

              a bunch of people share my first name and only 117 share my last name and I am the only one with <firstname>+<lastname>

              BUT the one little thing that struck me as really funny is that my <firstname> (clearly a male name) is only 99.79% males.

              This makes me wonder why someone would name their female child <firstname>????

              Can you say a boy named Sue???? I knew you could.

                  Over 8,000 share my full legal name. Fewer than 9 share my name when I substitute my nickname in. Hmmm - and some people wonder why I don't like using my legal name.

                    Oh....don't show me that site!

                    Before I got married, there was one of me. One.

                    After I took my husband's last name, which is boringly common, there are 1880 of me!

                    Though if I put in my first name as my nickname, it says there are 8.

                    I should have hyphenated my last name when I changed it...

                      2 people share the name I go by. (my middle name)

                      3 people share my first and last name. And I have a feeling that as of May that dropped to 2 when my dad died.

                        769,462 - share my First name

                        2,766,460 - share my Last name (yes it is THE most common last name)

                        and there are a total of 6,778 with my combination....

                        is it any wonder I go by Treasure?

                          1316 have the same name combo as me. Hardly unique is it!

                            16 for me, 7 for Mrs. Crossbow, if you use the shortened version she normally uses. 252 if you go by legal name.

                              Me - 504 people with my name. 37 if I use the version I usally go by.

                              My B/f - One or fewer and since he doesn't live in the states...yeah he doesn't have a common name

                                According to that site, there are 3 people in the U.S. with my exact first and last name.

                                Either that or I've managed to clone myself twice. Is the world really ready for that possibility?
