How Many Of Me Are There?
 

http://ww2.howmanyofme.com/

There are 1,601 people in the US with the same first and last name as me. :D

(whoops, misplaced a couple digits)

Apparently I don't actually exist, and neither does anyone in my family.

Well, the site does say it's in beta :p

From the FAQ

As for my name, it comes up with 113 (131 if I include the shortened form of my first name). Seems low. Plus, it's a very flawed statistical model seeing as it doesn't take into account the relative odds of certain ethnic first name not matching with other ethnic surnames (e.g. if your first name is Juan, odds would be lower that your last name is Smith than if your first name were John, even if there are the same number of Johns and Juans).

There's 389,959 people with the last name "Sanchez", but none of them with the first name "Dirty" :evil:

Apparently, I share my name with a whopping 21 people.

Didn't know that there were 21 other "Jughead's" out there.

nope, nobody else named motorboat. :)

But there are 66 with my real name.

1,405,353 other Elizabeths out there, but my last name turns up nobody! Whoo-hoo!

I did find a lot of dead mes last time I googled myself. Yeah, I google myself -- there's nothing wrong with that: it's perfectly healthy!

There are no other people named Matterhorn, but there are 3,390 people named Fan.

There are 6,057 people in the U.S. with my name.

Well, Jack William Bear is a very common name !!

Ha! My Trojan web site worked. I now know all of your real names and your associated IP addresses. :evil:

The thing that I found interesting wasn't how many shared my first name or last name or both (only 5 have the same first and last as I do, so it says), but that only 99.07% of he people named Leo are male.

Who names a girl Leo?

only 5 of me

None of me in the states.

....that's cos I'm here, I guess. :blush:

Wow, there are 4,726,005 with my first name (Robert), but only 51 with both my names. My dad is one of them :rolleyes: .

Nope, Goulish Delight came up with a big fat 0- zero- ziltch- nada.

Sorry...;)
However, Greg is no longer very popular I guess. I've known several, but only 155,984 now lay claim to it. Strange.

Robert.... Good name that. ;) :D

And only 5 of Alex, too!

And only 4 of Al.

Boy, they are rare folks! But I thought they said they left out figures with low counts. What do they figure to be low? One? Negitive two??

Yup, that's the "R" in RStar. The Star is the first four letters of my last name. Duh, ya think most of them are male? Who names their daughter Robert?

That's because you spelled Ghoulish incorrectly :D

662,931 for Gregory, though.

If it relies on census names, you'll probably want search with the full versions of names, not the more popular short versions. It is generally the former that goes on documents.

Though Alex is one of the odd ones where you do get a lot of people who are simply Alex and not Alexander. (And, for all I know Greg is a Greg and not a Gregory.)

But this really is a piss-poor system. It, for example, says nobody in the U.S. has the first name of Liam. I personally know three and they are all born and bread Americans. It isn't an uncommon name at all. (Unlike my sister, Arrin, which I still assume is a spelling that resulted from my mom's shock at an unexpected home birth, and also doesn't show up.)

My last name isn't *that* uncommon. There are always a couple in the phone book. It's common enough that someone once accidentally picked up our photos back when one had to actually have film developed. And neither they nor my immediate family is related (that we know of) to the well-known music store in Seattle bearing our last name. Bunches came over through Ellis Island. It's apparently a somewhat common name in its country of origin. And yet, it doesn't appear on the site.

There are four in the US with my name. I'm kinda bummed- I thought it was relatively unique. Then I felt sorry for them.

40 people in the US share my name. I'm actually surprised by that.

I'm the only one (in the US), but I'm also a film maker in Germany according to Google

Much like Tiggers; I'm the only one!

You got the middle name right.

I am one of 355(using my full first name Jeffrey not Jeff)....which I find a tad low(I have a fairly common last name). When I was at the DMV a few weeks ago there were 37 people with my same name first and last just in the State of Oregon. I also have to tell people at my doctors office which Jeffrey (middle initial)(last name) I am, using my birth date as there are two of us with the eact same name right down to the period after our middle initial. I just don't think this database is very accurate. How could 1/10 of all the people with my name live in a reletively small state like Oregon?
