0 with my maiden name and married name

The only unusual surname I could think of to look up was Shufflebottom - yes, it's a real one. There was one at school, and their dad was a vicar. So, do any of you answer to Ms Shufflebottom in real life?

0 with my married name - but then it's French so not surprising.

78004 with my maiden name.

This is really interesting.
Apparently only 58 people in the UK share my married name (and it's a fine olde Englishe surname, not a forrin import) and I know 12% of them personally!

Whereas my maiden name is shared by 24,892 people. Which is why we use it whenever we need to book anything over the phone - at least it is easy to spell!

Maiden name: 33351
Now: 3. Me, DH and DD (double barrelled)

78842 for my married name
N/a for my maiden name

I knew I was classier than dh

Quite a few with my married name (over 30 000) but it says no record of my maiden surname. I know my maiden surname is rare, but having researched my family tree I reckon there would be about 80 or 90 people with the name in the uk (and a few in Australia).

I am another genuine rarity... There are a surprisingly large number of us! I have already bred with two DD's so not much use am I

9767 in the UK.
76707 in the US.
2045 in Australia.

3 in 1881 but apparently none now. There' definitely us 2....

889 people with the same surname as me - 5791 most common? according to that list

Maiden name 12252

Married surname, none.

Which is odd because I know us and PIL at least share the same surname, it is quite rare in it's spelling though, but not that rare.

0 in the database which I was expecting as only others are my siblings or cousins a few times removed.
In South Africa its quite common though.

Apparently there are 0 people with my surname in the UK. But what about me, eh? There were 3 of us in 1881!

*that

759 does mean I'm rare?

Only 98, my married name is very unusual in the u.k and is normally found in Grenada and Barbados.

1338 and only 14 in 1881 - Irish immigrants !
None of my maiden name - end of the line

Married name 1,300
Maiden name 12,874

Married name: 39,126
Maiden name: apparently none, which is bollocks as there are at least 5, who are my cousins, aunt and uncle.

my married name " Search for 'X'

Sorry, we don't currently have any data for x.

If this is your name: Congratulations, you are a genuine rarity, at least in the UK. Maybe you should try to breed, to avoid the X family becoming extinct!

If you know something of the origin of this name, why not start a thread about it on the forum - if we get enough information, we may be able to add it to the main site eventually. "

I am not surprised. It's a forrin name.

My maiden name - - 48582
So fairly common then.

247515 with my surname.
105032 with my OH's.

At least both our Christian names are very unusual.

347 with my maiden name.
0 with my married name (is forrin and actually is a nickname taken on as a surname when someone migrated).

My surname is Robinson and apparently it's not in the top 100.

There are more people inBritain called Pinegar than Robinson? Really?

Apparently, I am a genuine rarity!
