A friend of mine had this on her blog and I thought it was interesting so I looked it up. Go to www.howmanyofme.com to see how many other people in the United States have your name.
There are 175,482 people in the US with the first name Holly making it the 340th most popular name in the US. There are 9, 239 people with the last name Isaacson making it the 3,939th most popular last name.
There are five people named Holly Isaacson.
When I put in Holly Engelhart there are only 870 people with the last name Engelhart making it the 30,847th most popular last name. And there is only 1 person named Holly Engelhart in the US. And I'm thinking maybe she doesn't even exist with that name anymore. :-) I always knew I was unique! :-)
There are five other Ella Isaacsons and Lily is the only Lily Isaacson in the United States!
Now, Andrew is a different story. There are 808,415 Andrews in the US. It's the 54th most popular name and there are 25 Andrew Isaacsons!
James is the number one most common first name overall and Mary is ranked 5th overall and is the most common female name.
There you are, some thoroughly fascinating statistics for a Monday morning. Check it out when you have a chance and I'd love you to post in the comments what your name ranks. I'm just weird and these things are interesting to me! :-)
Have a good week!

Guess we're not that unique! :)
By the way...LOVE the canopy! Hope all is well!

Interesting. It says there are ZERO people named Jenelle Isaacson, and I know of two. The first is (obviously) my wife, and the second is a real estate broker in the Portland, OR area (see dwellinportland.com).
I don't know where the stats come from, but I think it's wrong. :)
Hmmm...I guess I figured they used social security stats or something. That's weird that there aren't any Jenelle Isaacsons. Okay so its not so accurate.
I just tried "Janelle" Isaacson and it came up with one. I wonder if whatever they use as the basis for their database has her name spelled wrong.
I just happened to find your blog, and I tried my son's name, which is Connor and it says this name doesn't exist. I thought that was a pretty common first name.
they base this on mathematical statistics, not on actual people with these names
There are
179, 981 people named Renee
3 people named Renee Smock
4 people named Kyle Smock
5 people named Sean Smock
0 people named Kaitlyn Smock
