For my maiden name there are 20 and for my married name only 7. For my husband there are 25 which is strange cos that is his birth date and his favourite number. |

Cleo, Wasn't sniggering but I'm embarrassed to say my mind was drawn to an annoying girl band from a few years back, who kept going around singing, "We're Cleopatra and we're comin' at-cha!" Ahem, sorry... :-( (embarassed smiley) Andy. |

This is the message for TIff. You don't exist. Go and look in the mirror. If you see something then we're wrong else you're some kind of magic pixie, elf, carrot or vampire. Sorry. |

There are probably more people killed in yoghurt, cream, marshmallow and fluffy thing accidents each year then there are of you. I am quite unique, but still 19 people with the same name as me, that is more than I expected, I suppose it is my common second name that did it. |

There are 882 instances of Andrew Cook. Not really that surprising though! ;-) |

I have just found out that there are 157 Cleopatra's registered. Who'd have thought that there would be SO many cruel parents out there?!? |

I found this website called yournotme(.)com It tells you how many people there are in the UK with the same name as you based on the 2001 Electoral Role. I tried my name Alison Page and there are 123 of me! Just trying Page, however, brought up 31, 928! It's just for a laugh - try it and find out how common you are! Alison |
