Okay
Which Jess did I just address? Because there are 3 of you in my MSN list.
I actually want more now. Who else is called Jessica here?
Oh yeah topic: What's the most common name you know?
My name is 'Michael'. You have no frigging idea how utterly annoying it is to have one of the most popular male names in the universe. My brother 'Raymond' never has this problem. Jerk.
Jessica, for my age group, because Jessica was the most popular girl name in the last 80s - early 90s. I've been in classes with 3 other Jessica's, it makes me so mad. xD
Michael is another one, yes, that's my brother's name. We both have insanely popular names and I hate it. That's why I'm giving my child uncommon fruity names.
You should make a sitcom about how much you hate him.Quote:

I can think of 3 other Jess' I went to school with that were in my Year. There may have been more.
I know a lot of Daniels/Dans/Dannys, online and off. I think the most common name I encounter offline is Ben - I think I know like 7/8 Bens. :jess:
Chris is insanely common. I must know dozens and dozens of Chris' from my school alone.
I definitely went to school with about 5 ashleys and brittanys apiece. at any given time. out of 100 kids in my grade.
I only knew one other Stuart all through high school. Since he was a year older he was titled Big Stu and I was Little Stu, in our circle of friends. Then he graduated and I was the dominant one! Or at least he left high school. I don't know that he got a diploma.
At orientation for college we had to put our name in and stand in line to wait to get our ID photo taken. When I was towards the front of the line they called "Stuart?" and I spoke up to go... and so did the dude standing right in front of me. Turned out it was for him. We both had a good chuckle about that (it will probably never ever happen again)
I dunno, I think Alex is pretty common.
I'm Yuejiao, so I never have this problem! And my English name Joy isn't that common either. ^_^

Rasmus and Søren are both popular male names in Denmark. As for girl names Christina, Rikke and Camilla are very popular.
Didn't we just have this thread? xD

Thread hijack: uncommon names.
I know a Ceri (just said like Kerry), that was an unusual name. My Mum's called Gillian, which isn't so common.
There were 3 or 4 Amy's in my year group, which I thought was alot. I ended up getting used to hearing my name getting shouted and not looking up, as 90% of the time it wasn't aimed at me xD
Never met another Huxley :monster: Lots of Michaels though.
The most uncommon name (because I only know one) is Moranda.Quote:

But what was your original name, Mr. "Hobbes"? Perhaps you've met someone with that name.Quote:

There is always another Jessica. ALWAYS. Seriously. I don't even respond to my own name anymore.
Someone in the hallway'll be like
HAI JESSICA! and eight girls will turn their heads.
Biblical names are always really common. I know a lot of Jasons, Daniels, Davids, Hannahs, Rachel, etc.
In my classes in school, there was always someone with the same first name as me and someone with the same surname as me :/
I haven't met many other Liz's or Elizabeth's really. I can count the number I've met in person on both hands. :love:
Also I want to know PG's asian name. :kaolove:
I know 6 Tylers offline. There are a lot of Dans and Danielles online.
ogod.
I don't even answer to David anymore. There are just tooooooo many Davids. So then, when someone really is talking to me....
DAVID! DAVID? DAVID! DAVID? DAVID! DAVID?
And I still feel like an idiot, but for NOT looking.
D:
i know quite a few rob(ert)s and daniels but i still have yet to meet someone with the same first name as I! Clement.
The only common names I can think of is Matthew and Ben.
My name is quite unique so I never have the problem of someone calling my name when they're calling someone else with the same name (What? Are you guys expecting me to reveal my real name or something?)
My name is Nick.
I had a friend in my old CAD class named Nick.
I had a friend who was taking a carpentry class at FCCC named Nick.
There was another person in the mechanics class named Nick.
I had a friend at my home school named Nick.
One of my brothers used to have a friend named Nick.
My other brother presently has a friend named Nick.
I have a friend from Ragnarok named Nick.
And, though it isn't spelled the same, I have another internet-friend named Nik.
That's 9, just off the top of my head. That's why I go by "Ling" 75% of the time.
The most common name I hear is Matt. Personally I know about three of them. I remember when I was younger, one of my friends had a crush on 4 different Matts. Sara(h) is another popular name around here.

We all have common, extremely English names in my family (except my parents, both of whom have French names). My brothers are named Michael, Christopher, Anthony and Aaron. THEY'RE ALL TOO COMMON!!!!!
In my hometown, everyone* was named either Heather or Sarah. So, if you wanted to cheat on your girlfriend, you didn't need to worry about moaning the wrong woman's name, since you'd have a 50/50 chance of getting it right anyways.
*Including some of the guys, I'm sure.
I have a friend called Clem. My name, you'd think, is pretty unique. Dakoda. Well, like that it is. But I know 8 or 9 Dakota's. Bastards. And one of them even stole my nick name. GrrQuote:
