My name is more common than I know
Feb. 2nd, 2008 11:58 pmMy given name (only used by cops, and people who don't know me, save from documents; which is to say, mostly people who think my first name is Sergeant), isn't all that common.
First, they assume (correctly) I am male. Ok.
As for the other, with so many people sharing my name, the only one I've met was my grandfather.
The only other one I know about, was a pop-philospher in the 1920s.
"X" is the #4xx most common male first name
0.022% of males in the US are named X.
Around 26950 US males are named "X"!
