Poll: How common is your name?

[natster43]

My name is Nathan, and I have met at least three other people with this name. So I guess it is common.

 

[ELD3RGoD]

My name is Harrison - I've only heard my name once in public and once in stardom (Harrison Ford)

When I heard it in public I was like... Who me? Woah, who are you!? How do you know my name!? Then I realised they were talking to their kid.

 

[CroutonsOfDeath]

My name is Kadath. I have yet to meet anyone else with that name, at least not as their given name (A few Lovecraft fans have used it as their screenname. Also, yes that is where it comes from.)

 

[YonderTunic]

There were three people who graduated High School with me who shared my name, and one of them even had the exact same initials as me.

So Ima say fairly common.

 

[Scizophrenic Llama]

Brandon, so I'd say it's pretty common. It was a pretty common thing to have one or two other people with the same name as me in my high school classes.

 

[Whoatemysupper]

My name is Nathan (Nate is my nickname, for the last time not Nat)I've met 2 other people with it in my whole life.

 

[Loremaster P]

Fairly rare i would think since it doesn't even have a day in the calendar. And my last name was invented by my grandfather so in the whole world only a few of my relatives bear it.

 

[dex-dex]

my name is not common where I live. but I do know one friend who has a sister with the same name but according to how many of me
-Statistically the 709th most popular first name.
-There are 60,794 people in the U.S. with my first name.
and my last name I know is uncommon. and there are fewer than 116 in America.
not sure about Canada or the rest of the world and I only know of one relative who lives in America. .

 

[Slash Dementia]

Off of the website "How Many of Me", I got "There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. named Danteé [last name]"

I guess there aren't that many people named the variation of "Dante" my parents gave me.

 

[Sarahcidal]

super duper common.
My first name is sarah, and if you're in a mildly crowded room right now I can pretty much guarantee there are like 9 Sarahs/Saras in that room with you right now.

 

[Blow_Pop]

In 1970 my name was very popular....well my first name.....

but i tend to go by my first and middle name so.....

and in grade school i knew 3 other April's

 

[Besheeped]

There are 19 people on Wikipedia with my first & last names. I'll leave it at that.

 

[UltraDeth]

I've only once met someone else called Glen

 

[Zinaxos]

My name and nickname are very common. My name is so common that I usually have at least one person with the same name as me in at least one of my classes. My name is Nick.

 

[Dags90]

Friggin' ALEX, i know at least 10 Alex's personally, i share it with more than a handful of video game characters and most people here will know at least one themselves. Then most people wonder why i go under a nickname.

Alex usually is a nickname though, I don't know anyone who goes by Alexander. I would say Alex is an relatively uncommon derivation, certainly much less common than Alexander. Fucking Alexanders, using up my legal name.

 

[Klasvich Knapp]

I have never met another person or even heard another person with name klasvich

 

[StonkThis]

Apparently only 1559 people in the US have my name. With my first and last name, 1 or fewer (the one wouldn't be me.)

 

[elbrandino]

I'd say my name is fairly common(ish). I've met around 3 people who are named Brandon before. Oh hey that's interesting. I looked it up, and my name is the 1127th most common name in the US.

Edit: Wait, it's not the 1127th most common. It's the 68th most common. Wow.

 

[Detective Prince]

I've never met anyone called Catriona-Sian.

Met two other Catrionas. Met plenty of Sians.

Never met someone with the two joint. XD

 

[Revolution -X-]

Matthew. It's fairly common. In my circle of friends there's three of us, so we have to be referred to as Little Matt, Medium Matt, and Big Matt (based on height). I'm the Big one.
