internets to deborah: you don't exist!
This is fun! Unless you have a weirdass last name. Howmanyofme.com computes the popularity of your first and last names, then tells you how many other people in the U.S. share your name. Deborah is pretty popular, so I share that with 700,000 or so other women (or maybe men?). But according to the algorithm, ZERO people with my last name live in this country. Does that mean I don't have to pay taxes?

Apparently I have the 736th most popular first name in the country!
My mother knew what she was doing.
I don't exist either!
This site may have confirmed what I already suspected: there are 13 people in the USA with my last name and I'm related to all of them... through Justin, of course.
Effing eff. 14 people named Andrea Coffin. Bah.
I call foul! There's no Kiekhaefers? Anywhere? Have these people been to Reedsville Wisconsin? You can't spit without hitting one of my relatives.
oh and 99.9% of all Katie's are female. Sucks for that .1%
Yup, no one with my last name either--a case of illegal immigration perhaps? And if there are 1500 people named Leia, and 99.9 percent are female, then 1.5 males are named Leia.
0% and 0%, first and last name. I feel oddly invisible.
83 people with my name. I already know who a few of them are, because I've Googled myself before. There's a girl who was apparently a pretty good college field hockey player, an older man who's some sort of big shot in the beef industry, and a man wanted by the law in South Dakota.
It's funny that there seem to be so many male mes on the Internet, as I've never met a male Kelly in real life. The site says that 81.79% of Kellys are female.
It's strange knowing that you and your family don't exist...
What’s w/ the age requirement thing? Or are they just taking a poll, cause I tried it and it worked either way. Incidentally, armed with this info you could try to seek out your sisters-in-name-only. Mike recently got a message in his face book asking him to join a community for people with his last name - apparently mainly to gripe about how often it's mispronounced... Anyhoo, there are 8 others w/mine
