Well, there are 905 folk who share my maiden surname, and not one of them has my first name. And, (unsurprisingly), nobody has my married surname - I think there are less than a dozen total in the world and they should all be in the USA. So I'm doubly unique...

Do you think I made myself up?

I don't live in the UK, so it's not terribly surprising that there are 0 people with my name. Yes, my real name does not belong to anyone in the UK. If I google my name there are a few other me's in the world, though.

That name doesn't exist. Are you secret service?
Don't hurt me I've seen Enemy of the State.

34 name-clones. Do you think there are many wombats with bi-planes?

There are 168 me imposters. Which makes it seem as if it should have been much easier to get mugs and stickers and bike plates with my name on it when I was little...

66 mes. I really dislike the thought of other people having my name - if I meet any I'll kick them and run away.

Chol - there are 134863 people with my surname. Our name is Legion (well, not really, but you get the idea).

I don't think I care if lots of people have the same name as I do, though. What difference does it really make? Or, as some cartoonist or other once said, what's so unique about being unique?

There's absolutely no (my son's real name)
Absolutely no (my son's real name)

So he's unique!!

But I'm not surprised. Because on another site I found where they got their database: yr 2000 electoral rolls, apparently!

This is turning in to a game of spot the 'lithers with foreign names.

More people probably die poking spoons into the back of their PC's

only 4 others w/my name...'course i don't live in the u.k. anyways.
in the u.s. there's at least 17; what's alarming is that many of them have the same middle initial, and my initials spell my nickname. (uh, so do theirs i s'pose.)
also one of those people w/the same middle initial is only 4 years older than me and in this same city. weird.
(if yr interested in doing this search for the u.s., i used yahoo's people search.)

There's only one of me, dudes, which only serves to fuel my egotism. Hah hahahaha!!!

But there's none of somebody I work with. And she does live in the UK. But, she's Australian, and only last week she was bitching about how the Home Office are busting her arse over some fiddly citizenship issues.
