(There was just one of me ... hmmmm ... I wonder if I'm him. :wobbly:

Surprisingly, there was no one named Just Dicksbro. :shrug: )

Surprised to find out that there are only 58 others in the US with my same legal name. Oddly enough I have met four of them. :shrug:

I have the 29th most common first name and the 2441st most common last name.

No one in the US has my last name, I find this slightly odd. I guess it confirms I really am a figment of my own imagination.

There are 58 of me in the US and 1323 Fussies!

Only 4 people with our son's name in the whole of the US. I KNEW we'd picked something original! :D

Interestingly, I just put my friend's name in, who actually lives in the US, and apparently there's only 1 person with that name! I wonder if this looks at people who are on the electoral register and if so, what requirements do you have to fulfill to be registered to vote in the US? It could be her, and may help me in my search!

IowaMan
05-09-2007, 06:39 AM
Looks like the records come from the US Census Bureau so the voter registration records wouldn't be involved...... I don't think anyway. :shrug:

As far as requirements to be able to register to vote over here, as far as I know you just have to be a legal citizen, 18 yrs. of age and not a convicted fellon, right?

Damn, I could probably use a civics lesson. :yikes:

I was gonna be called Kevin, but at the last minute...they named me after my father.

Apparently, there's only one Gekko gecko in the US. For some odd reason, the search results list zero.

Obviously, there's something wrong with their search paradigm.

There are 826,936 people in the US with my first name (my mother thought it was a unique name when she gave it to me, but synchronicity took over almost immediately)...30,180 with my last name (wonder what the numbers might be in England, where it came from)...leaving 83 people with the same first & last...& I happen to know at least 1 of them was passing a bad check around here a few years ago...

That means that when you are in this country you should be able to just use your first name......... sort of like Madonna or Beyonce. You'll be a star!!!!! :D

Booger

Scarecrow

Zero for my last name also. There is no me. . .

Aqua
05-09-2007, 02:31 PM
OK... there are nearly 20,000 people with my birth name. That's first and last.
No one (including me :p ) with my real name.

Seperating the first and last names gives a return of over 2 million for each. :eek:

Doing a search for Aqua Man is a bust except for the 2,294 people with the last name of Man.

Ditto here!! ;) Only 17 of me in the U.S! (Probably 17 too many, mind, if I'm anything to go by!!)

Surprisingly, my first name is also attributed 99.9% to males.

Funny, that.

There are 24,146 people in the U.S. with my real 1st name. It is the 1178th most popular. And 99.9% of people with my 1st name are female. Phew!!

There are zero with my married last name. So I wonder if no one has that name am I really married? Hmmm… Zero have both my 1st name & married last name. Zero.. I’m a non-person?

There are 938,663 people with my maiden last name. It’s the 10th most popular last name. There are 75 with 1st name and maiden last name.


Fun site! Thank you DB! :)
