No big surprise here

There is: 1 person with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

I even used my real first name and not my nickname. This would be the plus side of having a very uncommon last name, which I suppose makes up for no one ever knowing how to spell it. Or pronounce it.

ETA: Okay, now I'm wondering how accurate this is, since it's claiming there's no one in the US with my father-in-law's name. Now, I know he travels abroad a lot, but he is still based in the US!

I'm pretty sure it was wrong on mine, because it said there was no one in the US with the first name "Jerusha" and I know of other Jerushas, although I've not met one.

Yeah... it also says there are zero people in the US named Fen and I know that's not true either. I may just go by that name, but I've run across at least two other people named Fen, although not in person -- one was a male Russian-American author who did a book signing at a store over in Seattle and the other was an Irish-American actress living in Chicago, I think (although hers may have been a nickname, as well).
