Zabel is the 10,396th most popular last name (surname) in the United States; frequency is 0.001%; percentile is 71.520 [SourceCBN]
hm...Valenti is the 4,433rd most popular last name (surname) in the United States; frequency is 0.003%; percentile is 61.797
that means we're special! the alternate spelling (valente) is even less 0.0002%
Wait a minute. Wouldn't that make you less special?
haha no cus so few people have such a great last name...we're special (special) so special (special)
Hahaha. I love my last name. It's so fun to try and get people who've heard it pronounced to spell it properly, or people who've seen it spelled to pronounce it properly. It seems like no one can do both. Italian names are awesome.
my name has no page :/ Probably because the only ones in this country are related to us.
My last name is obviously not that common. Oneglia doesn't even get a page.
Interesting...
Giaimo is the 31,958th most popular last name (surname) in the United States; frequency is 0.000%; percentile is 82.212 [SourceCBN]

They had my name on there.

They must just like Sicilian names. :)
wrong asnwer! mine is sicilian...
Actually, you may be right. I just checked some of the Italian names in my genealogy. The only ones that site listed were Giaimo, Gallo, and Porcelli. It didn't have Facciolo, Zanelli, Lagoria, Cutulle, Perruccio, Petrolo, or D'maggio. (Though it did have Perrucci and Dimaggio which are fairly close.)
Balzano is the 24,921st most popular last name (surname) in the United States; frequency is 0.000%; percentile is 80.047 [SourceCBN]
I'm sure you're all impressed. Not.
Did anyone else notice that this site also has information on frequency of first names? Apparently, my first name, Daniel, is the 12th most popular male first name in the United States; frequency is 0.974%; percentile is 25.194 [SourceCBN]. (My middle name, Micah, is the 520th most popular male first name in the United States; frequency is 0.017%; percentile is 84.820 [SourceCBN].)
Julia is the 89th most popular female first name in the United States; frequency is 0.223%; percentile is 40.711 [SourceCBN
that's very odd cuz it seems to be really popular but i've only ever known one person named julia. (actually two. there was a baby named after me)
Lindsay is the 1,211th most popular male first name in the United States; frequency is 0.004%; percentile is 90.011 [SourceCBN]
Lindsay is the 302nd most popular female first name in the United States; frequency is 0.060%; percentile is 66.507 [SourceCBN]
I'm guessing this means that there are some guys out there named lindsay?
Yup. A lot of those English/Irish names that end in y are unisex. Shirley, Courtney, Lindsay, Terry, etc...
Have you ever met a male Lindsay?
I HAVE! I HAVE! hes a big guy too... like you would expect him to be a skinny nerdy guy... but hes really tall and built... MMMM! haha ok i'm done...
heyyy is he really blonde?
u met him u retard...
relax capitan that's what i was trying to figure out.
haha yea, i only know ONE male Lindsay and hes it...
The guitarist from Fleetwood Mac is named Lindsay Buckingham...he used to be married to Stevie Nicks.
Interesting..it just doesn't seem like a good guy's name.
Really? It sounds a little unusual to me because I'm so used to Lindsay being a girl's name, but, frankly, I think it sounds better as a guy's name.
Why do you say that? I think it's a very feminine name.
To me "Lindsay" sounds very neutral, and I don't like girl's names to sound neutral. To be honest, there are very few girl's names that I actually like, and almost all of those that I do like end in 'a'. I tend to think they sound more feminine that way.
Really? I tend to think that L's are very feminie. Like, even the name Lawrence isn't too manly sounding and...well I don't like the name Larry but it's the nasty A in there that makes it sound more manly then the L does.
what about luke? or louis? or lester, lenny, lambert, lampton, or lonnie? lonnie can go both ways. hehe... go both ways... hehe
Hah, when I was trying to think up L names I couldn't think of ANY! But you're right. Luke..that's definetly a guy and Louis that can be a girl name, Lester..ugh.
L's definitely do help make a name sound more feminine. In fact, my favorite girl's name has an l in it. But "Lindsay" (as well as the other names I mentioned) sounds more tomboyish than feminine to me.
that's a good point, gab
Also, the Mets had an annoucer who has died ( i think) Lindsay Nelson.
and lindsay hunter of the detroit pistons
Lindsay Buckingham from Fleetwood Mac
yeah mine's not there

hahaha classic kelly. so weird that Kelly is so uncommon, yet there's two Mike Kellys that attend the same kingdom hall!
haha... dude i thought it was obvious from my comment that i made all those stats up... except the ones about me being hott... those were real
i know, i thought it was obvious that the "hahaha classic kelly" part was my nod to your made up stats, and everything after that was my sarcastic response to them.
i think you guys spend too much time together
i thought the "hahahaha classic kelly" was the "heeheehee classic zabel" nod of appreciation for addition of meaningful information to ezabel.
clarke is 482nd, but if you drop the e, clark is the 21st most common
