If there can be only one, then why are there 5 movies and multiple TV series?

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

There are? I only know of the one.

I have never in all my 40+ years ever met anyone with my name.

Closest was a horse someone named after me.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

they didn't tell you the horse was older than you?

[–] essell@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I couldn't check it's age coz it was a gift.

Little equine humour for ya.

I'm "blessed" with a unique name. Nobody else on the planet appears to have my given name + surname, let alone the equally uncommon middle name.

I apparently don't know enough people with horses in order to have one named after me.

Twins! Means it's easy to doxx me tho lol.

See my other comment. The only thing that makes me stand out is my weird middle name.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

i'm the opposite, i'm trans and i picked a rather rare name for my fist name, but my middle name? Jon :)

[–] modifier@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I’ve never even met anyone with my first name alone. I’m essentially positive I am 1 of 1 when it comes to my first and last name together.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

There was 5 people in my mid-sized high school with my same first and last name. LOL, most popular thing I ever wrote in the school paper was an article about it.

The middle initials? A, B, C, D, F.

One time a teacher reported $name to the dean's office and we all 5 were sitting in a row. "You do it?" "Nope." They had to let us off.

There are shitloads of people my exact age with the same first name because of a song that come out when were we gestating.

WOW! Not only my name, but my wife's name spiked the year we were born!

I was named after some guy before they found out he was a total dirtbag. My legal first name is so unused it sounds discordant when I hear it (like at a doctor's office).

I really struggled with that until my friend Chuck showed me his own ID and I learned his last name. Yep, Manson.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Chuck made the right nickname choice

There is one guy in the world who has the same name as I do. He once wanted to buy my domain bEcAuSe YoU dOn'T uPdAtE yOuR sItE.

Fuck him. I'm the original. And there is much more to a domain than the web.
