About Us

Welcome to How Many Of Me Are There, the most accurate and user-friendly name statistics tool on the web. We’re passionate about helping you uncover the story behind your name—how common or rare it is, who shares it, and where in the world your name is most popular.

Our Story

Founded in 2023 by data enthusiasts and naming aficionados, How Many Of Me Are There was born from a simple question:

“How many people share my name?”

What began as a weekend hack project quickly grew into a full-fledged platform powering tens of thousands of name lookups every month. We combined public data sources—census records, Social Security name lists, voter rolls, and more—with sleek, intuitive design to build a tool that answers “how many of me” in seconds.

Our Mission

We believe that every name tells a story. Our mission is to:

  • Discover Name Trends: From “how common is my name” to “how rare is my last name,” we deliver precise counts, age and gender breakdowns, year-wise charts, and state-by-state maps.
  • Give Power to Curiosity: Whether you’re a genealogist, journalist, marketer, or simply curious, our tool gives you the numbers you need—fast.
  • Celebrate Uniqueness: Names connect us to culture, history, and community. By revealing name popularity and rarity, we help you appreciate what makes your identity special.

How We Work

  1. Data Aggregation

    • We collect and normalize public datasets (U.S. Census Bureau, SSA, voter files, property records).

  2. Real-Time Lookup

    • Our engine processes your query instantly, returning total counts, national rank, and demographic insights.

  3. Visualization & Reporting

    • Interactive maps and charts show you how many with your name live in each state, how your name has trended over decades, and the gender/age profiles of your name-mates.

Privacy & Accuracy

  • Privacy-First: We only use anonymized, aggregated data. Your input is never stored or linked to personal identifiers.
  • Continuous Updates: We refresh our datasets annually, ensuring you always get the latest counts.
