Have you met someone sharing the same name as you?

my name isn't unusual,so i have ever put my name in google curiously,it was surprised i found someone having the same name as mine,i also would request someone to be my friend if i also found someone has a same name as mine.but for now i didn't have same opportunity to meet the person.

When i was younger i met my classmate's cousin with exactly the same first and last names as mine. While in college the postmaster told me my letter was opened by mistake by our school nurse who also have the same first and last names. And now that i'm married my sister in law and i share the same first and last names! One time our office issued me a check and printed on it was my married name but what caught my attention the moment i read it was the middle initial. It was supposed to be A for my maiden name but on that check was P which is my husband's middle initial (we work in the same company). And then i blurted out saying "my sister in law can encash it, it's in her name!" It's good we have different nicknames! This is one of the reasons i write my complete name -- my two first names, my whole middle (maiden name)hyphenated with my married family name, just to set me apart from the many women i share my very common name with.

Hi zandi,

It is really a pleasure to come into contact who shares the same name and surname. My first name are numerous, I mean Rajib. But the full name of mine is so unique that I have never heard anywhere so far with the same combination. And I feel I am the on;ly person under the Sun to have this name.

Hurray .......

I have not actually met anyone with the same name as I have. I do know there is someone out there with my name though. I used to get her bills and her credit was poor and affected mine for a little while.

Hello Zandi,
I have come across a couple of guys who had the same first name as mine but I have never met a person with the same surname as well. The thing is that my name has been very carefully thought after and it has got a bit of Indian Mythology going into it. Hence, it is really difficult for people to have the same first name and even if they do it, having the same surname is going to be nearly impossible.

I have a simple name and i thought i would find someone similar to me. I was only able to find one person and he lives in HK.

But then again some peoples privacy may prevent you from ffind or searching for them.

When i google i find myself bring a doctor.

It pretty fun to find yourself somewhere, maybe your name is ment to do something similar?

By searching the google site, I can find people sharing the same name of mine. It is strange to know some a real shots respectively in the recreational, educational and other fields.

The face to face experience with someone sharing the same name is in a hospital. The lady in the phamacy was puzzled and after double check we did not take the wrong medicine.

Recently, I heard about a new mobile phone service, which helps you to find and make friends with people of the same name at request. Strange in deed, and young people might be curious about it.

I had done a search on my name around a month ago, and found quite a number of people having the same name and surname as me. Some of them are even staying in the same country as me. I will have to say I'm not very surprised about it, as my Chinese surname is one of the most common Chinese surname around the world. There are probably billions of Chinese having the same surname as me. As for my name, it's also nothing unusual too. However, I had yet to meet anyone with the same name and surname as me. I had met before people with the same name, but not the same surname as me.

Twice I have received a package that belonged to someone else with the same name. I also noticed on my credit report that there was an address there for a person that had or used the same name as me in a town about 250 miles away.

The funny part though was with the first package I received. I came home from work and my wife said I had a parcel. She had opened it and inside was a t shirt with a note from a girl that said she missed me and couldn't wait for me to visit her again. It was funny because if my wife had not known better then it could have been fatal, we still laugh about it after 15 years. The second package was couriered just a few months ago, I signed for it thinking it belonged to my wife. As he drove away I noticed that it didn't belong to us and got phoned him to come back for it, I told him the story about the first time and he had a good laugh.

There is someone with the same name as me and she happens to be a successful realtor and obviously nothing like me!

Years ago I worked with a guy whose name was Paul and we shared the same surname. We often received each other’s mail etc. One day Paul said to me as he delivered something that belonged to me which had been sent to him by mistake, “Please get married Paula and don’t marry my brother!”
