We’re #1,574!

By Brian | December 1, 2007 | Share on Facebook

This cool, interactive chart from the New York Times shows the 5,000 most common surnames in the United States, according to the Census Bureau, who has compiled this list exactly twice in history (once in 1990, and once in 2007).

I’m proud to report that Greenberg stands proudly at #1,574, just behind Redmond and just ahead of Cote.

Most of my friends’ and fellow bloggers’ names don’t make the list, with the exception of Starr, who comes in at an impressive 1,135 (between Joyner and Morin) and Walsh, who blows us all away with a whopping #265 (between Fields and Little).

Up next: some even more useless information. Finding it may take a while, though… ;-)
