I'd be a little more interested if there were options for "how many people in Canada have my name" or, even better, "how many people in the world have my name". But until someone puts up those websites, I live with what I get here.

Turns out there are 186 people with my first and last name in the United States. There are 1,431,356 Elizabeths - is that all? If we added a middle name, what would it come to?


Just how many of me are there and why is that a scary thought?

How many have your name?

It's the ease of identifiability, I suspect. One of my great-great-grandfathers had a bizarre name (mind, his whole family had names like something out of Cold Comfort Farm): as a genealogist, for me it did at least make him easy to find!

There is that.

Rare names do tend to be memorable, too.
