googled my name and....

[extm88]

So i googled my name for fun today and to my surprise it is flooded with some maniac who took a pix axe to a photo radar camera in AZ.
The first thing i read was Travis Munroe is charged with this and that. I was like wtf:dunno:
Anyways, anyone else have some interesting google results.

[topmade]

I have a very common first and last name. First thing that came up is a relator that has a website with his/my name. Then a ton of hits from Facebook, which none of them were mine.

[extm88]

you feel so unique until you google your name haha.

[Supa Dexta]

I doubt there is another one of me in the world.

[extm88]

^^^^name wise you mean???
Im willing to bet there is someone somewhere with the same name lol. What are the odds with todays population to not have the same name as someone else.
When searching for friends on facebook some of the names are soo unique and 100 people still come up.

[dimi]

I search my name and Tennis Alberta comes up, where I used to participate in tennis tournaments. :D

[x.staygold.x]

no one else has my name...

:)

[extm88]

i used to love when my football stuff would come up typing in my name. now its all work related and criminals in the states haha.

Nah even still, I doubt there is. Uncommon name..., last name was made up out of thin air a couple hundred yrs ago, half uncommon first name..

[Destinova403]

my facebook came up...

[BBB]

Not to bad... If you google my brothers name, it brings up some article about a pedophile.. haha

[jsn]

searched my name and apparently i have a fan club. I wonder if i can sell them autographs :D

:rofl:

I google my name and come up with hundreds of pages of people with the same name. :( Only thing i found of me was my High school graduating class list.

[Gainsbarre]

I get a bunch of people in Scotland, including this hot shot physics researcher.

Might have something to do with me having a Scottish first and last name.

:rofl: actually found a few pages talking shit about me but whatever.

lol im pretty sure that this is how all last names originated, plus it was a few hundred years ago. whats your name anyways, now im curious just to prove you wrong

[scat19]

I end up getting an "&" between my name, and contracting after it.

Frist name & Last name contractor.

heh :dunno:

[TKRIS]

Just me, and a like-named Christian Education Coordinator in Ohio.

Oh the irony...

[98type_r]

In 1982 I shot someone in the back, with a shotgun.

[A790]

The first 3 pages are all me in Google. After that it's about 50/50.

[craigcd]

Yes! I have a ventalation company over seas!

[300zxfairlday]

lol i get when i had to testify in a murder case

Only 2 pages and its all me lol, so noone shares a same name :bigpimp:

[Tik-Tok]

Only the guy I was named after :facepalm: (apparently my mom had a crush on this guy when she was a teenager, and since my dad had the same last name... my first name was picked because of this guy)

He was a radio host in the 40's, 'B' movie actor in the 50's/60's, and tv show guest on quite a few shows in the 70's/80's

[Kloubek]

Apparently, I'm a famous scientist.

[Spoons]

Mine just came up with my Facebook hit, some threads from Beyond, and a ucalgarylife.ca hit.

[ThatRx7Guy]

i died in 2007

[n1zm0]

only one person overseas who has the same first and last name, it is a pretty unique combo, the only thing directly about me is my work's website and my job title

[dantheman27]

apparently i have been found guilty of first degree murder!! :nut:

[em2ab]

Okay, mine is the weirdest so far....

1. I'm a stained glass artist.
2. I'm a folk music singer.
3. I'm a dean at the University Of Calgary (this guy):
http://fis.ucalgary.ca/sites/fis.ucalgary.ca/files/photograph/photograph_16_748.jpg

4. This one's the best. I died in the World Trade Centre attacks but this is the weird part from the website:
"he spent every minute he could sharing and taking part in the lives of his own two. Kathy, his wife of 25 years, said her husband was into just about everything their sons, Daniel Jr., 24, and Joseph, 21, were."

This Daniel Jr guy has a father with his same name and a mother named Kathy.......that's my parents' names exactly to the spelling. I also have a brother but he's not named Joseph. Weird.

[iblizzard]

Practically everything that comes up is me... Ian Blizzard is a fairly rare name.

I wanna be convicted of some cool crime... Or some high ranking successful person!!! I guess I'll have to make my own achievements, can't be lazy.

[JRSC00LUDE]

I have a town and university named after me in Scotland and a guy in the states that builds custom bike frames....too bad they are road frames. :(

[nonlinear]

everything is me. my last name is pretty strange. my great great grandparents immigrated from the austrian/slovakian border (near Vienna), and the name is REALLY common there (and in north america, too), however when my family came they decided to spell it pseudo-phonetically to Americanize it. now, their descendants are the only people in the world with this last name! my first name is pretty common, but when you put it in with that last name, it's all me baby.

luckily it's all work-related stuff, and nothing bad or illegal or anything haha.

EDIT: oh, and some bands i played with in high school and univ haha

[nonlinear]

Many last names actually originate from the region/landmark people lived closest to.

Umm, no sorry but i wasnt specifically starting a thread to see what everyone had come up. Mostly just surprised as to the physco with my name who tried taking a red light/speed camera down with a pix axe.
I searched and didnt find anyone who mentioned this.

Some surnames originate from peoples' family occupations:
Smith == blacksmith
Cooper == barrel maker
Schumaker == shoe maker/cobbler

Some names with the "son" suffix originate from lineage:
Johnson == son of John
Peterson == son of Peter
Jackson == son of Jack
etc...

[mowglee]

i was in al-qaeda :eek:

The way iceland works is sons and daughters. example>

egilsson is the son of a guy named egil (eagle), where as his daughter would have the last name egilsdaughter. And then say the sons name was olaf egilsson, his sons name would then be say jon olafsson... Is my take on it anyways.

>egil XXX
>>olaf egilsson
>>>jon olafsson

[BerserkerCatSplat]

I'm:

-A photographer from New York who had better keep renewing his domain name or I will damned well take it

That's cool. Is this method still in practice now, or was this how current name originated?

[D'z Nutz]

Back on topic:

Mostly my photography pops up, but there's some guy in Nova Scotia who builds webpages and some guy in New York's Facebook. People who keep bugging me to join Facebook get that guy's page from me :rofl:

[AndyL]

Truly disturbing... Apparently I have hundreds of clones running around england, scotland, ireland...

There's another clone who's apparently showing blown glass at artsy fartsy events in alberta.
