Your name-what others look like

[jessmarimba]

Googling me turns up a guy in San Francisco who works on some sort of youth council and takes up the first 10 pages of results.

...And a Liberty Ship that was sunk in 1945.

[crazycanuck]

Apparently i'm an author, actress and an information technology person...

No ships or historical places named after me though

[Crankin]

Snowroo, that is definitely not the name. Begins with M.

[KnottedYet]

Crankin T**b**d**u? Is that you?

I've always thought Thibeadeau would be a good name for a dog. Wasn't there a dog in "Pogo" named Thibeadeau?

My first and middle names are both top 10 names for my generation, and my last name isn't very uncommon either, though I've never met anyone else with the same name. But a quick Google search confirmed that I am a body builder, celebrity makeup artist, and star of a pretty unknown music video. I guess I'm more versatile than I thought!

 I get many e-mails from different people asking if I am the stunningly wonderful person they went to high school with. I never am. the other mees are just so much better than me; nobody's lookin' for "just me"... 

But are they a cycling nut like you? I be they might be blown away by you, zipping along the bike. Or at least how your life has been transformed by cycling.

My search turned up a judge and an herbalist. Oh yeah....and then this one..

OK you made me Google myself! Apparently I am now unique! My maiden name was a really really common one and so are my given names. Back in the day when I wrote a cheque to pay for things, the salesperson would ask "did you live here? did you live there? did you live here?" etc. And I worked with a girl with the exact same name as myself in my late teens. We had to go by our hometowns so our boss knew who to pay what!

My search turned up a realtor in CA, a high school art teacher in PA, some sort of project coordinator in London, an ophthalmologist in Germany, and an ob/gyn in Germany. Quite an assortment!

I got it! Crankin Maritime-Ontario

[Crankin]

Nope, sorry. I think actually the company was involved in a huge lawsuit and is not in business anymore. But, I know my son keeps getting invitations to join their family e-mail or some type of web site, even though he has told them he is not related.

My married name is either an activist in a very different part of the country and apparently a very polarizing one. I once got a hateful email addressed to her. My name is also shared with a dentist in Washington. There is also a "childminder" in England. My maiden name is less interesting, some old things I won in high school and just regular people still out there. It is a much less common last name but still not that rare.

Funny...I found lots of pics of my husband's cousin (her name is Kristin...not technically even the same name) and her hubby. When I use my maiden name there are a lot of photos of an artist with my name...I believe I had discovered that she lives in Canada a while back.

my last name is extremely rare. googling it find only relatives i have met and very few of them. my first name is sort of common but not super common but i want to change my first name to one i actually like and the one i found that fits well and i like is pretty rare. so once all the legal paper work is done with i will have an extremely rare name. i try and not use my legal name online much because i don't like people knowing what i am up to and i would be the only me to show up. i almost never use my legal name in day to day non internet life anyway. just go by various nicknames.

My first name is a more uncommon spelling of one that is relatively common. My last name is pretty rare, even in the UK (and no one spells either right).
Google comes up with...
-Several that are legitimately me. (University club web pages.)
-There's a couple in the Peak District who run some kind of small shop. The wife's name is the same as mine. (Weird part: the husband's is the same as my dad's!)
-Someone in Virginia
-You all would appreciate this: An Australian road racer.
