106... wow.

I have only met one other person (outside of my family) with my last name, in my life.

Videtich doesn't exist in the database. :)

There are only 5 of us on Facebook... my two brothers and I along with two other random people.

Liao, 8242. I would have thought it would be rarer as i have only met 1 other person outside my family with that last name.

<last name>, as a surname, does not exist in this database, because it is not among the top 55,000 most common names in the US.

4089th? :D I'm not even American, lol. Would never have thought of that. Ofc you have almost every possible names over there.

Out of sheer curiosity I checked "Wong" and it's 418th (just came to mind).

Mine is ranked 2898, which it was changed too by my grandfather. It was once 6405 (Both pronounced the same way).
