Re: Name

To answer his question. I have a common last name. I always wonder if we’re related, because i’m adopted. and it sucks. What about someone with the first name Raneri? Ants pants wrote:

I don’t really have a very commen name. Raneri that is. Anthony is pretty commen. Sometimes people with the same last name will message me on myspace or facebook but they always live in Italy. Ever since I was a kid I wondered if it’s weird for people who have more commen names to meet people with the same names or see characters in movies with the same name as them. Like, if your last name is Jones, are you just used to that happening? And if you meet someone with the same last name, do you assume you must be related? If I met someone who’s name was Anthony Raneri i’d be weirded out i think, but if my name was Anthony Blake, would it still be weird? I don’t know. I hate not being able to relate
