Poll: How common is your name?

[secondcircle]

My name itself is common, but my spelling isn't as common - 'Beki'

 

[William Dickbringer]

Fletcher is a fairly common last name but not a common first name I highly doubt anyone else has it in the US

 

[GaryH]

My first name is very common. The combination of my first and second name is, as far as I can tell, unique to me.

 

[hotacidbath]

It's Jeanne pronounced like Jean instead of Jeannie. Looking it up it was popular in the 20's and 30's and has since dropped dramatically in popularity. I've only met 2 or 3 people with the same spelling and they were all older ladies who pronounced it Jeannie. I believe it has French roots (like Jeanne d'Arc) so it might be more popular in French-speaking countries (if anyone knows I would love to find out if this is true), but in the U.S. it's not common especially for someone my age. I'm named after my grandma's so I guess it makes sense to have an old lady name.

My first name is Tua.

Yeah.

It's not really on any birthday cards or necklaces, and I've "met" like one person with it. On facebook.

-Shrug-

 

[ddon]

My name is common in a way and uncommon in another from what I can tell. I have heard of a lot of people named Stephen but I am the only person I can think of who spells their name Stefan.

 

[Penguin_Factory]

My name- Ronan- is fairly uncommon in Ireland. You hear of a few people with the name, but not all that many, compared to the amount of Jacks and Shanes and Brians out there.

According to How Many of Me there are "fewer than 1500" people in the US with the name.

Interestingly, there's only one person with my full name in the country, and given that I was born there it's probably me.

 

[Jak23]

My name is Josiah, and I have yet to see or hear about anyone else(living) that has this name. So fairly rare.

 

[Erja_Perttu]

I'm a fairly uncommonly named gal. According to the internet, I share my name with nine other people in the USA, and I can't imagine there's too many more dotted around the world. Yay me!

 

[Evil Top Hat]

Joe.

About as common as you can get.

 

[U_NavMan]

Navarre is not especially common as a first name. I hear it is more so as last name, Primarily the French. I've never met anyone with it.

 

[DesiPrinceX09]

Even in the Muslim world, my name (Ammar) is a pretty rare name. It seems that in a lot of Sunni Muslim dominated places you see the name Omar (which I hate being called), I've only met one other guy with the name Ammar and he was a Shia like me so I'm pretty sure Omar is a Sunni thing while Ammar (the correct way of saying and spelling it) is Shia from what I've seen.

 

[fusion_cell]

Alistair, never me another, me other people with the name but spelt differently

 

[Hasido]

as a first name, my name is pretty rare (i have only ever met one person in my life with this name as a first name)

as a last name its somewhat common.

 

[similar.squirrel]

Christopher and its several variants are pretty common. Slightly off-topic, but I have a friend called Stig. That's pretty damn cool.

 

[dorkette1990]

I would say no one else has my name, but I've heard of one other girl with my name in Burma. I dunno if it was the same spelling, but it was pronounced the same at least.
My name is Amia. (Not Amy or Mia, not, it's Uh-Me-Uh)

 

[Master_of_Oldskool]

Cody. Not particularly common or rare on a global basis, but I swear to the Slender Man every other male in my hometown is named Cody.

 

[Marcosn]

Quite rare i would say, I think I am one of 3 people with the my last name in England and I've never met anyone with my first name of Marcos but i don't know about other places in the world.
