People with the same surname as you but not related to you.

Tangatagamadda Chaddabinga Bonga Bungo

What's up boards family. As you may well know, Irish people are a little inbred.

What has your experience been with people with the same surname as you but your not related to them in any way that you know.

Is it wrong to have funky time with one?

Have you completely ignored the fact and ye judge each other the same way you judge everyone else? (Normal answer)

Do you think or see that they resemble you in any small way?

Do you feel a sort of distant kindred spirit with one?

Have they been absolutely fantastic people like yourselves or have they been absolute bastards?

Thoughts and non thoughts welcome.

I dont want Mary O'Rourke as a relative. She's not thankfully although she shares my surname

I would say that it's more wrong/uncomfortable to get jiggy with a person who has the same name (first name) as your mother or sister. You just can't get over that.

Well thanks for preemptively explaining your absence; you really helped negating the confusion some of us country folk were bound to experience with you not being here; or there as it was..

Now off to tend to my field of winter turnip.

It was funny, everyone thought we were married

Same surname does not equal same bloodline, no relation , all systems go!

It's the "ickiness factor" that would put me off. See my post above about dating someone with the same first name as your mother or sister (brother in your case)....I'm thinking of things said in bed. Maybe I should get my mind out of the gutter.

ah who are we kidding we'd ride some of our cousins

Ah nicknames were the norm for both, never in their lives have they both been called by their christian name outside of school.

KKkitty

My surname is unusual so anyone else with it is related somehow to me.

Do you ever meet many of your own distant cousins from the 'Tangatagamadda Chaddabinga Bonga Bungo' clan OP? :P

Hey boss, I really like living here and like this country.

Have never and will never (probably) live in any other country.

I went out with a girl for a couple of years with the same surname as me. Even worse her brother had the exact same name as me too. So when we were out together and she'd introduce me to someone they'd often say "Oh, this is your brother", at which point I'd start kissing her neck and fondling her breasts. Always drew a few funny stares!

Only me and a far off distant aunt that actually got married have the same surname oddly.

The name is actually Gaelic for 'I like pigeon with sauce'.

MurdyWurdy

My gusband's cousin married someone with the same surname as her but no relation, so she didn't have to bother changing her surname. Handy! It is a pretty common surname though

You sure you're surname isn't Nahasapeemapetilon?

Sofiztikated

I met (as in came into contact with, not met as in met) someone with the exact same name as me one day.

I was thrilled! Him, not so much.

Dìck.

Has to be O'Sullivan IMHO.

I'm the only person with my name in the country - for sure (and I have an irish first name). I'm most likely the only one of me in the world according to google.

As for someone with the same surname that isn't related to me - I haven't met one yet

Google has confirmed that you do not have a clone??

Reassuring, I suppose.

Dravokivich

I was in Germany for a festival my mates where playing at. One German lad working at it spent a lot of the weekend trying to find the Irish group because he had the same surname as me.

If only he started close to the beer tents. He'd have finished his quest sooner.

Well google shows up nothing except stuff related to me, and even at that it is limited enough!

Considering I have a very uncommon non surname, and an Irish first name, if there isn't another of me in the country (confirmed by PPS people!!) then it's fairly possible that there isn't another of me in the world!

I don't think there are any people with my surname in Ireland that I'm not related to, so the above would actually apply to me

Earthhorse

When I was in Vegas I decided to buy tickets to the Penn & Teller show at one of the concession stands. To use your credit card in America you need your passport so I handed it over to the clerk. He looks at it and says, "Aw, you're kidding me, man!"

Thinking there's something wrong I ask what's the matter. He points at his name-badge. Turns out, we share a surname, so I say "Well, maybe we're long lost brothers!"

He's black, I'm white. He took a long, hard look at me before deciding I was joking with him.

Hoop66

Yeah, I don't think I'd like to go out with a girl whose first name was mammy. It'd just be awkward.

Irish Guitarist

My surname is pretty unusual and isn't Irish in origin. I don't think there's anyone in Ireland who shares the same surname that isn't related to me. It's so unusual that when I see someone else with the same surname (which has only happened a couple of times, once being in the end credits of a film) that I wonder if they're related to me.

lubie76

I have a very rare surname ( although its well known in boardsies world thanks to my bro) and common as muck first name. There is obviously one person with same full name in uk tho as I often get pm's on Facebook from people with posh double barrelled names asking if I'm her.

ONeill2013

in my area it is crowded with the same old surnames. O'Neill, Quinn, Doyle, McLaughlin, etc.
My next door neighbour has the same as me but we aren't closely related (judging by the 6 generations of ancestry i know)

A friend of mine has had sex with his 3rd cousin, the way i see it is they aren't family, they just share a distant relative to you.

Rasheed

My surname originated in the county I live in and it's still common around here so there are loads of us. I've been with three different lads with the same surname as me, didn't bother me, they were fine things.

I was just about to say I've probably got the second most common surname in the world, so I can ride whoever I please, but I was afraid I'd give myself away.


Woops!


Have an uncommon first name and according to Google, no one else shares my name.

rainbowdrop

I know a lesbian couple that both had the same first name! Now THAT is a bit freeky.....

citytillidie

Guess it would be ok for girls, dont have to change your name

The Backwards Man

I share my name wwith a famous racing driver in Texas. He's a bit of a knob, by all accounts.

I'm probably the only person in Ireland with my name.

I'd love that. I know three other people with my name. And a black soul singer.

Galwayguy35

My surname wouldn't be too common in Galway but it would be in the midlands and up the north as well.
