Hi. I wonder if you know or meet anyone in real life who share the same complete full name as yours. As far as I know, I share the same complete full name with my sister-in-law when she was single and also with my husband's distant cousin before she got married. My sis-in-law lives in adjacent town while our distant cousin lives on the same street as ours.
Just a few days ago, I received an invitation to a surprise 25th wedding anniversary party and I am sure it wasn't for me since I don't know the host nor the couple. So, I thought that it might be for my sis-in-law or my neighbor across the street. I have to let them know about this party, just in case it's for their friend. :)
How about you? Do you know of anyone who has complete name similar to yours?

Sometimes it does especially if both live on the same neighborhood. Like in my case, my distant cousin lives right across the street and though I don't know her that well, I would feel bad if I won't notify her about this party, in case these people are her friends. Plus, what if the host would tell her someday that she sent an invitation to her name and then she'll realized that it was sent to my mailbox and I didn't even bother to inform her about it. Maybe I will just drop this invitation in her mailbox. :)

Your best friend and his brother have the same full name? That's really strange. So they have nicknames like ABC I, ABC II..Thanks for responding.

I don't know any of them. But i do know that there are thousands of guys have the same name as i. My former classmate know one who has the same name as me. But i don't. Maybe someday i'd go and pay her a visit.My name's just too common, that's possible.
**Enjoy life~~**

With so many people in the world, it's impossible to have a really unique name I guess. Enjoy life too!

One day i got a letter in my post box addressed to a lady whose husbands firstname and surname was the same as mine. Since i am still single i was much amused to be foisted with a wife. I then looked up the telephone directory ,got the number and dialled it.That person`s son picked up the phone so i asked for the man with my name. When he asked me who i was i gave my name. He thought i was pulling his leg so he called his father.His dad also thought that i was pulling a fast one but finally i convinced him and he had a good laugh.
Similarly i once received a phone call asking whether the TV was repaired. Iasked who the person wanted to speak to and he told me my name. I then told the man that my name was correct but i neve repaired TV sets because that wasn`t my business. Finally i came to know that there was another person with my name. Till dat i have found two other people with my name but not in my city.
MyLot code: veejay19.

Thanks for the response and sharing your unique experience as well. It would have been nice if the checks to pay for the repaired TVs have reached your mailbox! :)
