How would you feel if you met someone with the same? Do you feel happy? Tell me what do you do when you meet someone who has the same name as yours.

I've actually met many people with the same name as me and I'm proud to say that we became good friends. I'm always happy to make friends and I'm specially happy to make friends with the same name as me. I think having same names will more or less guarantee that you like the same things because I believe people's character matches up to their names. LOL When I meet a friend's friend with the same name as me I always want to know them a little bit more since I feel we share something more than just names.

I agree names really mean more than they do and sharing it with someone means even more. Thanks for responding

I'd probably ask where he got his name from, maybe we got our names the same way Find out if we also share the same interests aside from sharing the same name..

It certainly feels good to meet someone with the same name. I try to figure out how different this person is from me, instead of looking for the similarities. The most memorable of these meetings of course was with a doctor who had the same first name, who was treating me a few years back. While I was quite in awe by his composure and dedication to his proffession, I found it a little strange addressing him by the same name.

Inschool two of my classmates bore the same first name as my self but i know at least two persons who bore the same full name as myself though i haven`t met them as yet but i have talked to one of them.Both of us had a good laugh when we spoke to each other because his wife`s letter landed at my house by mistake, and i am unmarried.I will of course feel happy to meet someone with the same name as mine.

I agree I had a friend who got into trouble because he shared the same name with a man who was wanted for theft. Thanks for responding!
