Surnames of people

Good question. You've named one of the most common "color" surnames in the US, and so are others: White, Black, Green...I've known a lot of people with those last names. Mine is not too common, but not that rare, either. Karen

The three most common ones that I can think of are Smith, Jones and Brown. My parents bought their house from a Smith family and the original owners of the house were the Browns. Just goes to show just how common they are. As far as my own surname, my maiden surname was Lynch which is very common in Ireland, but not so much common in the United States. My married surname is Winburn. My husband says that this one isn't common at all unless it is someone that is related to him. And, I believe that he is right. Everyone that I've ever met with the same last name as I've got know all say they were related to my husband's grandpa.

Mine is very common in my family

Other common surnames are Johnson, Williams, Jones, Carter, Rodriguez. That is all I can think of right now.

day,jones,green,my maiden name was murray,which is quite common,now my surname is ponder which i think is more common in the usa than here in the uk

Not for this country...but my family is czeck, our name now is Kral...but it was shortened from kraljovszky at ellis island...Kral on the other hand on slovakia is very popular, i was surprsed to find...it means king.

My married surname is pretty common, but the name i was given at birth is not at all common.

There is Jones and Johnson those are two I can think of at this moment. No I do not have a common surname.

In Chinese, we have lots of common surname.. the big fives are chen, li, wang, he, jiang... but something different in my family is that, even we are in the same family tree with the same ancestor, our surname in english was written differently. My paternal grand father had a surname of Kwan, and come to my 2nd uncle, they are Weng, and lastly, for my family and my youngest uncle, we carry the wong spelling..

Perez is a quiet common surname at least on this side of the world. There are others but cant really think about it. My surname, Castillo, its not the most common name but it isnt strange either.

Indonesian surname likes bejo tejo etc, my surname is tata=)
