I just did! Nothing really comes up. Unless you do a search for a different spelling of her first name, then there is someone running for mayor in midwest with her name. Then a male celebrity comes up, guess cause we share a last name.

Only because our last name is also a noun.
ETA: That wasn't clear. The only reason why anything comes up is because our last name is also a noun.

Just tried this. We were in the paper the day after she was born (b/c Santa came to visit the hospital on 12-12-12) so a link to that comes up. Apparently the story was wired to other local papers around the country so those links come up too!

Are we googling their full name (including middle)? If I do that in quotes, no matches are found! But if I leave out the middle name, then a Civil War soldier comes up!

I just did...hadn't thought of it before. Apparently he's in a band name for himself and on twitter twice. Busy toddler. Our last name is pretty common...

Nobody for DS1, a terrorist for DS2 (sigh) but the real kicker is together they are (apparently) from this teen fantasy novel that will be a movie next year. This is first name only though... Nothing including last names.

yup- linked in comes up and there are like 100 people with his same first and last name (we have a very popular last name)
and if I google in quotes- there is one guy in TX who is 60 who has the exact same name!

Holy smokes. A guy with the exact same name (including middle) is 24 and was convicted of manslaughter for a drug related shooting. Lovely.

I do it for potential baby names! We have a very pretty/hippy-ish last name that I'm worried some porn star will start using or something! Ha!

ooh fun, I just tried this! the only thing that comes up is someone who had a similar name (ours has 1 extra letter than the one that came up) from a family history site who lived in the late 19th/earlier 20th century in Russia

Nothing comes up. Anyone with our last name would probably spell the first name slightly differently!

Yep - two results. One FB page (a guy in Wisconsin) and another website with a list of softball coaches. My LO coached softball in 2008!

When I Google his full name, only he comes up buy we have a very weird last name. If I do just his first name a bunch of people's last names pop up ( his first name is more traditionally used as a last name)

I just did with the 3 we are considering. 2 of them linked to at least one (but seems several?) people oversees in britain/ireland (not shocking with our very irish last name). the third one belongs to some teenage girl in middle america, and several others haha.
Trouble with a not-super-unique last name I guess.

My DS is apparently popular on youtube! Weird that they have the same name!

Our last name is a verb so you get links about ppl with her first name doing that verb (like, Sally smiling, on different names
)
One genealogy.com hit though from the late 1800s, when her name was most popular.

I just tried it. The closest one that comes up is someone with his middle - his first name nn - our last name! Weird.
ETA: He's a photographer with some pretty cool photos, actually!

Guess the New England Patriots had someone with J's name (first & last) - too funny, I had no idea!

Apparently there is a well known bartender in the San Francisco area that shares LO's name.
