There are 13 people in the U.S. with my maiden name.
There are 59 people in the U.S. with my name during my first marriage.
(what's interesting is I met one, with the same spelling, as a school secretary at Beorn's middle school. But that was obviously after I married Hyperception and my name changed)
And there are 366 people in the U.S. with my current married name.
I've become less unique over time...
And also just out of curiosity:
There are 838 people in the U.S. with Hyperception's name.
There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. with Beorn's name (that was the whole point)
There are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. with my sister's maiden name
And there are 1 or fewer people in the U.S. with her married name. So she stayed unique.

Seems more than 99.9 percent of people with my first name are female. Guess the pressure is on now for a sex operation.

798,117 share my first name.
1,829 share my surname.
5 share my first and last name.
I wish I could check for middle names as well. It would be interesting to find somebody else with the exact same full name.
Edit: I just googled my name, and got 2,640 results with my first and last names, and zero with my middle name added. I guess that makes me slightly unique.

Or maybe it's just that I've never had all of the pieces of my name typed into the Internet at the same time.
