More Jennifer FitzGerald

Do you know a Jennifer FitzGerald? I don't personally know another one, although I have started posting comments on their pages.
A friend said, "People should start finding more unique names for their kids". I agree, but there is one problem with that. You might think it's unique when you name your child, but 6 months down the road you find out that 20 other people in your county alone, named their child, what they thought was a unique name, and it just happened to be the same one. That is precisely how I got my name.
My mother thought she was giving me a unique name, as she only knew one other person, my great aunt, and, like I said, it turned out to be the most used name that year. This is what some call "universal thinking".
Universal thinking is when everyone around the globe is thinking the same way. We believe it to be an individual thought, but we all have it at about the same time. That's another subject though...
Well, now you can come here to my blog and see if you have truly found a unique name. Try out the name counter. That's how I found out there are 390 women named Jennifer FitzGerald in the United States alone.
I am trying to brand myself as "the" Jennifer FitzGerald, although I'm not as old as the one that dated President Bush Sr. But, as far as I can tell, she isn't trying to get her name out there, so we shouldn't have any clashes as to who came first.
