What's in a name?
Does anyone know any sites where you can check if anyone in your country/ planet has the same name as you?
I just want to see if there's any other Redfern Jon Barretts

very useful information
There are "3, 2, 1 or 0" persons with that name in Norway  , according to Statistics Norway's website. However, there are 23 persons whose last name is Barrett.

Hee Hee. I looked up one of my friend's names and he is apparently the central character in a trashy romance novel.

I have a super rare last name. It's actually funny, I am the only one who can continue the name of our family, since all my cousins are girls, only two guys, but they have different last name now. I'm the last hope! So every one of my cousins share different last name, because I have many aunts that adopted their husbands last name. It's kind of fun, but I'm getting little pressure now, since I don't even have a girlfriend now and they asking 'so when our familys future is saved?'.

There are 1348 of me on IW's site + 48 with other common variations of my 1st name. One of them won a British Academy award a couple of years ago...
The cloning seems to be working.
There are also seems to be 11 of me in Norway, though I can't quite read the site !

Interesting,
Only 71 Chedgy's in the whole country.
3 of them are me, my ex-wife and my sister. (assuming the electoral roll data only includes those over 16 - if it also includes children then David and Emma are included)
