How many people in the US have your name?

[Alex]

So I found this site called howmanyofme.com, and you type in your first name, and your last name, put that you're over 13, and it goes to the next page. On that page, it tells you how many people in the US have you first name, and how many have your last name, and how many people have both your first and last name.

You don't have to tell anyone either of your names, of course. Just post how many people have the same name as you. :]

As for me..evidently..

ïThere are 205,881 people in the U.S. with the first name Alexander.
ïThere are 213,914 people in the U.S. with the last name Cole.
ïThere are 143 people in the U.S. named Alexander Cole.

I don't know how good that is, exactly. I think it's kind of unique, though.

Pretty good if I do say so myself.

*676,026 folks in America share my first name, which is Anna.

*Fewer than 114 folks in America share my last name, which I will not reveal for privacy reasons .

*I am the only peron in America who has my name.  Nobody else shares it with me :blink:.

[Noname]

258,119 people are named "Vincent."

I won't give out my last name, but... few people have it in this country.

There are 12 people with my name in the US. Just my luck that one is a BMX star, another is a VP in Silicon Valley, and the rest are in front of me on Facebook...

Also of note, there's one person in the US named Seymour Butts. I feel for him, I really do.

[Alex]

Man. My name sucks compared to some of yours.

I didn't look at the celebrities or nothing. I already know that some guy with my name was a pro baseball player, now he's in prison for cocaine possetion, I think.

Other interesting things people might want to know:

There are 4 people in the United States named Ben Dover.
There are 8 people in the United States named Indiana Jones.
There are 6 people in the United States named Jesus Christ.
There are 15 people in the United States named William Shakespeare.
There are 2 people in the United States named Steven Spielberg.
There are 8 people in the United States named Chuck Norris.

And, sad as it is that Ted Kennedy died, at least we have 63 more.

[Mumbling]

There are 84,503 people in the U.S. with the first name Iris.
More than 99.9 percent of people with the first name Iris are female. (lol)

There are fewer than 114 people in the U.S. with the last name Kuppen.

There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. named my full name.

Probably 0

3 of me

104,477 - first name

8,320 - last name

Just for fun, I compiled a list of famous people who hit each number from 1 to 15. I kinda copped out on 9 and 11, as they're not really famous, so if anyone else wants to look for others, knock yourself out.

1. Arnold Swarzenegger
2. Mary Queen of Scots
3. Abraham Lincoln
4. Karl Marx
5. Andrew Carnegie
6. Clark Kent
7. Oscar Wilde
8. James Earl Jones
9. Peter Forsberg
10. Bill Clinton
11. Jay Naylor
12 Chester Arthur
13. Alfred Hitchcock
14. Harrison Ford
15. Bruce Wayne

Some rejects from the list were John Galt (16), Britney Spears (2), Todd Beamer (4), Martin Brody (8), Bart Simpson (13), and Smith (14). Yes, just Smith.

I'm too shy and paranoid to share my name here, but I'll tell you the statistics I got:

ï 291,920 people share my first name.
ï Fewer than 114 people share my last name (I'm not surprised, as I have a rather unusual last name; one that I've been teased for several times in the past ).
ï I'm the only me in the country. Yippee! I'm unique!

Just to clarify, though; doesn't this site only calculate the names of people over 13? For all I know, there could be a 12-year old out there with the same name as me. Is that right?

[Pangaea]

Just for fun (and inspired by LettuceBacon&Tomato ) I looked up the names of the hosts of MythBusters (one of my favorite TV shows):
ï There are 72 people in the U.S. named Adam Savage.
ï However, there is only one Jamie Hyneman in the country. (Somehow I'm not surprised. )
ï I'm more surprised by the fact that all three members of the Build Team (Kari Byron, Grant Imahara, and Salvatore "Tory" Belleci) have unique names.

Adam (very common, I already knew that)
    * There are 399,470 people in the U.S. with the first name Adam.
    * Statistically the 143rd most popular first name.
    * 99.62 percent of people with the first name Adam are male.

Last name
# There are fewer than 114 people in the U.S. with the last name -----------.
# The estimate for this name is not absolute. There may be fewer people with this name, or none at all.

There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S.

Honestly, I've actually searched my name and if its for real, I did find someone else with my name in the US.  Like everyone else, its the last name.

[Petrie.]

Here's the interesting thing...my last name came from a clerical goof on Ellis Island....I changed the spelling on the site to see what it would be like had I put in the proper spelling:

    * There are 356 people in the U.S. with the last name ---------------.
    * Statistically the 60230th most popular last name.

Perhaps I'm not the only one with that story.

[Paradise Bird]

Fewer than 400 people have my first name
6017 person with my last name
1 person in US with my name.
I think it is fake because I don't even live in US and my name is not even in english and my name comes from a group of people with less than 3000 are left and we are only in south east asia

[Coyote_A]

Looks like noone in US has last name similar to mine.

[Serris]

There are 46 Tony Starks in the US.

I guess that means there's 46 Iron Men.

[Amaranthine]

Already knew my name was common. I always wanted an unusual name though.

There are 692,944 people in the U.S. with the first name Amy.
Statistically the 68th most popular first name.
More than 99.9 percent of people with the first name Amy are female.

As for my last name:
There are 301,585 people in the U.S. with your last name.
Statistically the 67th most popular last name.

And there are at least 680 people in the US with my first and last name.

[The Great Valley Guardian]

I knew my name was pretty common place as well!


There are 2,622,774 people in the U.S. with the first name Richard.
Statistically the 8th most popular first name.
99.77 percent of people with the first name Richard are male
    
There are 690,158 people in the U.S. with your last name.
Statistically the 22nd most popular last name.

    
There are 5,891 people in the U.S. named like you.

I am alone. Somehow, that makes me feel good and scares me at the same time.
