  • There are 6 people in the U.S. named Jesus Christ.
Gasp!

EDIT: Atleast 5 of them must be lying about their name...

Interesting. I read the bit about it not having every name, but obviously, my first and last names are not very common.

But I know they are wrong about the last name. I was in Seattle a couple of years ago, and there were 2 people with my last name there (in the phone book anyway, one of whom I have reason to believe is my dad's brother.

Hmmm, it said there was noone with the same last name as me but I know there are atleast 100.

Also.......I put in Kobe Bryant just to see what the matches were but it said there are 0 people in the USA whose name is Kobe Bryant. Someone better tell the Lakers they have an alien on their team.

The name of an accounting firm in Scotland is the exact same as mine, though (first and last), since my first name is also a last name. I've always thought it would be funny to hire them.

Wow. I have the first most popular name in the states (or variations thereof). My given name anyhow, I go by my middle name.

And.....there are zero people with my last name, which doesn't surprise me, its fairly unique.
