Not on the top 500 - however I have a flaming Gay art professor, a miss teen Illinois now a newscaster, and many engineers and architects in Germany and Swizterland in my internet family. Many Canadians too. |

Mine is in the 280's.
I scrolled all the way up to 1000, and didn't see it before I realized there was a search available. God I'm slow this morning. |

In the 3000s. Surprising, because it's a fairly common last name in my hometown. My friend's surname, Kang, was twice as common. |

Lee and Kim are high.
So are Kennedy, Clinton and Bush.
My name is nowhere to be found. My mother's maiden name is the most common of all (Smith). |
