    Yes.

  • My given first name is Elizabeth, pretty common, but if I heard it yelled, I doubt I'd react though because Nobody ever calls me that. I prefere to be called Libby.

    No, I don't think my name is all that common, although I hear it more now than when I was a kid. It was really unusual then.

    I have a common name spelled an uncommon way. People can usually say it, but not spell it. My kids have easy to spell uncommon names. They are words that are not usually names, so people can spell them easily.

    No I don't. Actually, I have never met, or heard of , a person with my name. Kinda creepy, really. Although, my middle name IS worse..
