never have yet.... but then mine is a fairly unusual Irish name so I'd say it's unlikely enough

but how can you expect random people (of whose backgrounds and lives we know nothing) to share our tastes... We (thankfully) don't wear the same clothes, have the same hairstyles, like the same food.... nor like the same names.

Mine won't come up either - unless there's a revival of shit 1970's names.

When they talk of a revivial of commen 1970's names, mine always appears.

Personally I think if there were a revival of 1970's names mine would be very popular, its a nice name - just too much of its time iykwim
