131 of me. But I've known a few with my name and met a couple. Although people think my last name is rare, it isn't.

There is 1 or fewer with my mom's name though. Her first name is Sirie.

Now my cousin has less than 115 for her first or last name. So obviously she is the only 1 with the combo. According to this site at least.

11,583 with first and last name.

I've always known I've had a generic name.

Quite a few with my first name, little over hundred with my last name, but I'm the only one with both.

I'm the only person in the USA with my name. Sweet. 426 people share my last name and 426k share my first name. Nicholas must be a rather common first name, but I know my last name is very small here. Majority of the people who share my last name are living in Switzerland.

Pretty boring answer here. 1,022,699 people with the first name Matthew, 6,768 people with my last name and 22 people nationwide with my first and last name. 99.7% of people named Matthew are male.

Where in the hell are they finding females named Matthew to make up the other .3%?!?

Yeah, this is wrong. It says "one or fewer" and I know of at least one other guy with my first and last name.
