I always thought Nicholas was a fairly common name. Dunno why, then again, that all depends on where you live and where you are from.
But ... Alex is a nicknameEpilepsy said:
OT: I've seen a few people with my name, but never met any in person. My first was used once in a TV show (NCIS) for the name of a marine, and I think I've heard it a couple more times on TV, but most of those seem to be when they are trying to give a name to the character that isn't 'John' or 'James' or something, yet also isn't foreign or weird. So my name is a 'rare but normal' as opposed to 'rare and weird' (like A-A, or Abcde) or a 'common and normal' (like John, Matthew, Alex, Chris, etc)
My first name - Alexander - isn't particularly rare, based on statisics. That said, I don't personally know many people who share it.
My last name, on the other hand, is an eclectic hyphenation. Apparently only one other person shares it, and she's a devout Christian from half the world away, so... I'm not really sure what my point is there, actually.
I am unspeakably thankful that my parents didn't choose to name me Alecks, or Aelyxxx, or Âl_èx~x. At least my first name doesn't require me to spell it out for people. Having a unique name may afford some poor souls a sense of importance if they have nothing else to cling to, but I can only see it being a nuisance.

My name, which is Edward, is the 27th most popular name in the US. Actually, I once met someone with the exact same name as me at a national Duel Masters tournament. And because of that incident, I now know that I have a Texan clone.
Also, according to the site from which I got my information, 99.74 people with my name are male. It makes me wonder who would give their daughter a female name.

My name is Jared which is 226th most popular in the US. I have actually never met anyone who has my name(although I met a couple of people named Jarod).
Well it depends on what context (What really!?)My exact name as a first name in its proper form (Lévis), Probably not many other people like one or two or none. All of them from Québec. My name in its proper form in any part of the ridiculous paragraphs we francophones call a name... every one in my family and pre much half of Lévis, Québec from what I hear. My name in all its translations (Levi, Levis, and what ever else there is) lots apparently there's like three guy's at my high school with that name which pisses me off cause everyone else is to lazy to pronounce my name right (which I didn't mind until grade 10 when they started popping up out of nowhere) and are always talking to the one behind me or something.
Sam.....
Very common. I like my name, it fits me really well, but I'm giving my future children really original names.
It's a very odd circumstance when three "Sam's" (one being a girl) are all in a corner of a classroom from a randomized seating chart. Multiple heads turn whenever the name is said.
Props for the original name. That's really cool.

According to WolframAlpha, my name, Michael is the single most common name in the US 3.95 million people, 1 in 61 (and the most common age to have my name is 54 year olds). It was extremely popular to name your child that from 1935-ish to 1990-ish, peaking at the late 1960's with almost 1 in 20 babies given that name. Now, many babies are being named, Isabella, Jacob, Sophia, Ethan and Emma. so if you want your kid to have an original name, please don't pick those.
