Top Five Full Names in the U.S. — Is One of Them Yours?
Every year lists a released of the most popular baby names for boys and girls, but this is the first year I've ever seen a list of the most popular full names. I was shocked to see mines not on there!
According to Slate these are the MOST common:
FIRST names for Boys are:
- John
- Michael
- James
- Robert
- David
FIRST names for Girls are:
- Mary
- Jennifer
- Patricia
- Linda
- Maria
LAST name for either sex are:
- Smith
- Johnson
- Williams
- Brown
- Jones
But the MOST common FULL names (that's both a first and last) are:
- James Smith
- Michael Smith
- Robert Smith
- Maria Garcia
- David Smith
Whatever your name is just be glad it's not 'John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt,' that poor guy.
