Have you met someone sharing the same name as you? email this discussion to a friend?

I was browsing through Facebook today and what caught me by surprise is I found someone having exactly the same name as mine. Sharing my christian name is common everywhere but what perplexed me is we also have the same surname and both of us are from different ends of the world.

Out of curiosity I requested her to be my friend and she agreed to my request. So as normally done in facebook they will write who has been friends with whom and I found it interesting to read 'Angela L is now friend to Angela L.' Facebook is one of the most popular social site that connects old friends and classmates as well as the unknowns. Though I don't regularly use facebook but what draws me there is their farm town which is a popular game that teaches you to be a progressive farmer in the virtual world. It is interesting and addictive. Have you met someone sharing the same name as yours?

I've never been in touch with someone with the same name but I once did a web-search and several thousand came up! Try it! I'll have to try it on Facebook now!
I love Facebook, all my wide-spread family are on it and we now keep in touch! So much easier than timing phone calls or writing letters. I've also got back in touch with friends I've known for years but rarely get the chance to see. I know the game you mean, it's not my kind of game but a lot of my friends play it!

I did the google search and that was how I stumbled upon this lady sharing exactly the same name as mine but luckily she is not from the same place as me otherwise there will be complications when it come to hospital records and other documentations. Facebook is great place to find long lost friends.

i haven't meet anyone with my same name for first and last... my first or my last i have meet but not both at the same time... what would be really interesting would be to meet someone who had the same first, middle and last name as you lol i have seen a few people on face book with same name as my dad though


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

It is a rare find to have the exact first and second name the same and that makes me want to be friend with this lady who share my name. I am yet to know her month of birth and it would be another big surprise if we both share the same month.

Heh, it's hard just to find someone else having the same first name as mine. Last name, quite more often!


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

It is more difficult to find people that share both the first and second name.


myLot reputation of 79/100. crazynified (176)   ranked 43 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

yup, certainly... very rare for me, since my first name is rare!

I've never met someone with the SAME EXACT name. I've seen people with the same first name but not whole name


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

I have and feel honored that my name is 'popular' in the sense that someone share my name. lol

Now that you mention it, I went to a wedding last week and met someone that had the same last name as me, who I had no idea who it is.:o
We didn't share the same first name though. I actually got a seat next to her at the wedding reception so we got to talk and know each other.=)


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

If people with the same surname (second name) as mine would make me more curious to know more about that person concerned. Who knows we share the same father too. LOL

when i was in high school, our batch had 3 other people with the same name as mine. It's really funny especially when our teachers would call out our names and we would all stand at the same time:) it's good that at least we had different surnames! lol


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

You remind me of the time when I was staying in the convent. They were 2 Angela and the nuns changed my name to Angeline. I was known by this name throughout my junior schooling and I even got the pet name of 'Lynn' and some of my friends still call me by my pet name to date.

my first name is "ying",my surname is "wang".i found some girls even some movie stars have the same first name as mine"ying",but the surname is diferent. now i'm a master in school and i found a girl has the same first name and surname as mine, and she just live opposite my dormitory. we are in the same major. it's interesting.sometimes someone call "wang ying", i thought it was calling me, but not. so, now, everytime someone is calling that name i will wait a moment to asure that if she is calling me.


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

lol it must be confusing to be close by with someone having the same name. lucky for my that my other 'twins' is living in another country and it only confuse others in the virtual world as she is in many known sites like facebook etc.

Dear Zandi,
When i joined a new Co. as a Executive Secretary, i came 2 know abt another girl who was working there s a receptionist n her name is also "SHABINA" which creates a great confusion so, my boss starts calling both of us by our Last name...


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

lol there is another mistaken identity when names are identical but it is lucky that you both didn't have the same second name otherwise one have to take up another name to avoid confusion.

I have a friend whose name is same as mine. I am proud and happy because she is pretty and she has some qualities like mine. Names are meaningful and it gives character to the person you're naming and I think our parents have the same purpose of naming us our our name.


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

You have reasons to be proud of as the other person that share the same name as you has a character that is in itself a prized trophy to be shared.

hi zandi. how are u? yes there are five boys sharing my name in my locality but their surname are different. i met two guys whose surname also same to me as well as the first and middle name. but i have not anyclose relation with them. thanks.


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5718)   ranked 3 out of 234 in freind  5 months ago

happy It is good that you know you are not alone as others liked and share your name. So you need to be on the alert if one of your 'twins' does something bad and your name will come up for mentioned everywhere.
