Interesting site, but I have to admit, I cheated a little!

It says that there is only one of me - Dane Creel - however I know that not to be true, because I am "Little Dane"!!! My father is "Big Dane".
Of course, calling a fellar that weighs 240lbs "Little" anything is a bit of an oxymoron!

In addition, I go by middle name - if you look up my true first name, "Aaron", there are supposedly 12 of us.
Of course, only vinyl siding salesmen and bill collectors call me Aaron (and he is never home when they call!)

So I think I will stick with Dane - While my mom may disagree, I'm certain my former wives and girlfriends will assure you that there are already WAY too many!!!
:woohoo:

If you read the FAQ it says:
The list of names from the census bureau isn't complete. For privacy reasons, names with relatively few responses were not included in the list.

I go by my middle name, too.

That makes there a total of NONE of me in the US! At least there's still one of me in the world though, although some may argue that's one too many... :laughing:

heeheehee...

It says:

There are 0 people in the U.S. with the last name Panian.


HOORAY!!! I don't even exist! (and neither do my various brothers, sisters, or any of our children)

I wonder if this means I can stop paying taxes?

There's 153 Sean Ryans in the U.S., plus 172 Shawn Ryans and 32 Shaun Ryans. I think I've met most of them. There was a very long murder trial in my hometown starring the most notorious of the oodles of Sean Ryans. I try not to use a credit card there.

There are 81 people with the name "Shawn Lamb" and
15 people with "Shaun Lamb"

Poor buggers :roll:

PS: Had a friend who liked the name Shaun but she married a guy with the last name Lamb and decided she just couldn't do that to her kids.

There is nobody named Hendrix Abercrombie in the U.S and since every body that knows me calls me Marty there is only one in the U.S. Now since there is not a Hendrix in the country which im pretty sure is written on my social security card (as opposed to marty wich is written in my underwear), does the 0 Hendrix's negate the 1 Marty? Damn Im afraid im really going to lose some sleep over this one.
Im Marty Abercrombie
