Posted: 6/22/11 at 4:04pmI have Phyllis, many a time but the response I ALWAYS get is "but it's on private so only my friends can see it"...who these "friends" are, I have no idea.

Posted: 6/23/11 at 10:15amWhen I google image my name there are about 100 different people with my name apparently. The only picture that is actually me is the one I have as my avi here.

Posted: 6/23/11 at 10:22amThis is one reason I'm so happy to have such a common name. The only stuff I can find that's actually about me is from high school. I have a very boring internet trail.

Posted: 6/23/11 at 1:59pmSame thing... There are something like 5 million people with my name. A google search doesn't come close to finding me. I'm just glad my parents didn't call me Shanniqua, Brydyynn or Jeyymez.

As do I.
One of the top google image search items for my name is a tombstone with my name on it. 
I guess I died in 1946.

Posted: 6/23/11 at 2:16pmMy name (especially my last name) isn't very common, which makes some of the odd photos that come up all the odder.

That is one fab outfit phyl!
My name may not be too common, but it's the same as the subject of a very famous photo that is very sad, haunting and powerful. I thought it had won the pulitzer prize in 1990, but while in DC for Follies we went to the Newseum and I didnt find it in their Pulitzer winners gallery (very good exhibit!)
Also some poet has alot of pics of himself. Mine doesnt come up at all.

Posted: 6/23/11 at 4:25pmYeah, I have an insanely common name... at my new job that has only a handful of employees, there are two other guys with my first name. My last name and middle initial are ridiculously common, too, so the only way to find pics of me online is to google my full name with quotation marks around it.

Posted: 6/23/11 at 6:13pmGoogling my name brings up a picture of my wife kissing my cheek and one of our wedding day where I am standing behind her, holding her boobs. I should probably look into that...

I think Phyllis should be the first BWW Indianette of the week.
Danmag, that doesn't surprise me at all.

Posted: 6/24/11 at 9:23pmI just googled myself and one of the first hits is now a credits page here on BWW, which must have been added recently as I don't remember seeing it before.

I just google image searched myself, and the first few results are related to me, which was mostly relieving, but after that, it goes into a bunch of pictures of a football player who shares my last name, which is quite ironic seeing how much I can't stand the sport. I was fairly certain that there is a hockey player with my last name, but no pictures of him came up. When you normal google search me, it's mostly me, but I am mentioned in an obituary as an already deceased sibling.
On the original topic of this thread, stories like this make me glad that I don't have a facebook (not that I really have much to hide).
