There is one guy in the world who has the same name as I do. He once wanted to buy my domain bEcAuSe YoU dOn'T uPdAtE yOuR sItE.
Fuck him. I'm the original. And there is much more to a domain than the web.
That's the reference I was looking for.
Just noticed the the text colour I chose is the same as that of his teeth. :D
The Highlander theme begins to play
There can only be one.
If there can be only one, then why are there 5 movies and multiple TV series?
There are? I only know of the one.
I have never in all my 40+ years ever met anyone with my name.
Closest was a horse someone named after me.
they didn't tell you the horse was older than you?
I couldn't check it's age coz it was a gift.
Little equine humour for ya.
I was named after some guy before they found out he was a total dirtbag. My legal first name is so unused it sounds discordant when I hear it (like at a doctor's office).
I really struggled with that until my friend Chuck showed me his own ID and I learned his last name. Yep, Manson.
Chuck made the right nickname choice
I'm "blessed" with a unique name. Nobody else on the planet appears to have my given name + surname, let alone the equally uncommon middle name.
I apparently don't know enough people with horses in order to have one named after me.
Twins! Means it's easy to doxx me tho lol.
I’ve never even met anyone with my first name alone. I’m essentially positive I am 1 of 1 when it comes to my first and last name together.
See my other comment. The only thing that makes me stand out is my weird middle name.
i'm the opposite, i'm trans and i picked a rather rare name for my fist name, but my middle name? Jon :)
There was 5 people in my mid-sized high school with my same first and last name. LOL, most popular thing I ever wrote in the school paper was an article about it.
The middle initials? A, B, C, D, F.
One time a teacher reported $name to the dean's office and we all 5 were sitting in a row. "You do it?" "Nope." They had to let us off.
There are shitloads of people my exact age with the same first name because of a song that come out when were we gestating.
WOW! Not only my name, but my wife's name spiked the year we were born!
