Fun and Birthdays

[pameladlloyd]

October birthdays for people on my flist: phillberrie, cvillette, and domynoe. Happy birthday to all of you!

Now for a little fun with names, via pjthompson:

HowManyOfMe.com

There are 152 people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

I also ran a search for my husband's name:

HowManyOfMe.com

There are 1 or fewer people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name?

And I ran them for our boys, but I'll just post the numbers: 80, 41 (but, he prefers his middle name: 439), 1, 1, & 1.

It's pretty cool how many names are unique if you take a combination of first and last names :-) But of course, a person is totally unique whether their name is or not. Hello, snowflake!

Ooh! I need a snowflake icon. :)

This makes me realize that there's a tie-in I hadn't noticed between my previous comment and this one. Collectively, we are Joe Six-Pack, at least as characterized by Palin, but in reality, we are all unique.

Thank you for starting my day with this insight. :)
