there are people with my first name, and people with my last name, but idk if there are any with both

The site isn't accurate. It says only 1 person with my name. While my name isn't that common, I went to school with 2 others that had my name and that's just in this region of Brooklyn.

Literally no one in the world has my last name, thanks to an Italian bureaucracy scew up.

When I was in 3rd grade, I was on a basketball team with someone who had the same first and last name as me. We needed to make up nicknames to tell each other apart.

Just under a thousand with my first and last name.

I deliver mail and one of the first weeks on a new route I got a package that needed a signature for...a person with my name. So apparently I deliver to a person with my name. Made me do a double take when I saw the mail

3 with my first and last name in the US.

Neat.
---

I looked it up once and allegedly there are only 15 people in the US with the same name as me

Oh, I just used the howmanyofme site from this topic and it said there are only 3 people with my name. I wonder what the truth is lol

it doesn't scrape through primary SSA data to see how many people are given the name, it just calculates the likelihood based on the names popularities so that makes sense

Lots of people have my first given name and my first (paternal) surname. All of them seem to think my gmail ([email protected]) is theirs, and sign me up for shit.
Years ago I tried to make s Pandora music account and it was taken with my email. I asked to reset the password and now it's mine.
A year ago I got a Home Depot account the same way.
3 different Name Surname have ordered stuff with address from different sites, and I sent them letters with printed screenshots of their streetview from Google Maps, asking them to use an email they do have access to.
Every once in a while I get a password reset request for my Facebook.

There are plenty of people with my first name and my last name is very common. I don't think any of them have my middle name though.
