Title: Find out how many people have your Name in the US
Post by: Ceric on April 10, 2007, 08:13:43 AM: Heres the Site
According to it there are 65 people with the same name as me. 0 with my Mom name. It also has a variety of other statistics.
Ironically enough I cam across this from the Shook facebook group (328 strong and growing.)

Post by: vudu on April 10, 2007, 10:37:09 AM: Pale's last name is too awesome to be real. Face it. You're a hoax.

I have a female cousin named Kevin. I'm not sure if it's spelled that way though; she probably throw a y in there somewhere.

Post by: Pale on April 10, 2007, 10:42:06 AM: Man, I got picked on so much as a kid for my last name, and now everyone thinks it's awesome.

In elementary school I get "HA HA MIKE GAY-MAN"!

Then I grow up and I get this "Mike Gamin! When we saw your last name we knew you had to be an omeganaut" Coming from Gabe and Tycho at PAX '05.

It's like the twilight zone!

Post by: Ian Sane on April 10, 2007, 11:28:01 AM: There are only 8 people in the US with my real name which is interesting since neither my first or last name is irregular. It just seems that the combination is uncommon. I'm curious to know how many are in Canada. The US has a WAY bigger population than Canada and if only 8 people over there have my name for all I know I could be the only person in my country with my name.

Though I'll bet there are tons of people in the UK with my name. My last name is English and "Ian" is a much more common first name over there than it is here.

My brothers have ten times the people I do and my Dad has around 30 times as many. My Mom has 0 for both her current name and her maiden name.

Edit: I checked some of my friends' names. Not only is there no one in the US with the same name as my friend Adam but there's no one with his last name PERIOD. Yet in school every teacher always pronounced his name correctly on the first try but never got mine despite it being phonetic. Go figure.

Post by: Arbok on April 10, 2007, 11:42:16 AM: 1 million people in the US with the name Anthony, 135K with the last name Romero, and 491 with that same combination.... I honestly thought the number would have been higher than that.

Post by: Sessha on April 10, 2007, 11:51:06 AM: Good Lord

More than 99.9 percent of people with the first name Jung are female.

So I am the .1 of the group this makes me feel like I should have an identity problem.

Statistically the 1664th most popular last name.

but with our name powers combined:

Nobody in US has my name First name which can't be true because there's 5 people in philly with the first name Nile. All women but me, scary. Fun site nonetheless.

Post by: Urkel on April 18, 2007, 07:20:19 PM: There's only one other person who has my exact name.

And just for fun:

There are 475,071 people in the U.S. with the first name Albert.

There are 0 people in the U.S. with the last name Wesker.

I guess Wesker is too damn cool to be a real name.

News to me!

Also, I'm pretty sure I'm related to this guy. They made a movie about him, maybe you've seen it!
