I myself was named Justin Anderson; good luck searching that one.
Tanzi.
Awwww, yeaaaahhh.
In all seriousness, I have an awful lot of trouble with it, from people on the phone thinking I'm making shit up when I order, to purposeful and accidental mispronunciations out of disbelief or ignorance. The equally rare, but not *quite* as off last name certainly doesn;t help.

Pretty common...Rachael, just spelled differently. I also have the most common last name in the U.S. lol...
Really? What about Fionnula Flanagan (my namesake btw), or Fionnuala Sweeney who hosted ESC in 93? I suppose they're not all that famous, but Flanagan played Data's mother in STNG! That counts for something right? She also played a Vulcan in STE, but I don't know what they were thinking; a Vulcan with an Irish accent?sean360h said:
Yes, I desperate for the name to be known somewhere
Well I know 3 other people named Thor personally. Though one is my uncle, great uncle, and my nephew... So yeah. I have never met anyone outside of my family with the name. Though I'm told in other countries it is a bit more common (though still unusual)
Might be the part of the country you live in. I grew up in a town of 98 people in a rural area. There were three Duanes (or dwayne)Fbuh said:

According to this census done in 1990, Briana is the 880th most common name in the U.S., Brianna being at 738.
As for in real life, I've met two other Brianas, but they were spelled Brianna and Breyanna. My last name is in about the same area. I always hate it when people misspell my name with two Ns, especially when they didn't ask first. It's not that hard to ask, or look it up.

Well my first name is Jack-Joe, so i don't think many others would have that name to be honest wit ya.
Edward. It's not common, but not unusual either. I know there's no others in my school of >2000, so it's surely on the rare side.
