Apart from those minor disadvantages, it's distinctive to have a rare name.

All depends on which part of the world you're from. SMITH is extremely common in English speaking countries. LOUIS is common in Latin (especially Italian) derivative countries. Eugene/Gene is fairly common in England (why I don't know) and it's colonies. Eugene Levy is a famous Canadian comedian. Gene Autry was a famous American movie actor.

Thank to the advantages of the internet, you can now purchase almost any personalized item for even the oddest of names.

I used to think my name was uncommon... yet somehow my brother-in-law (my husband's only brother) managed to find a woman with the exact same name as mine, right down to the spelling and married her... It makes it very confusing at family functions. Especially since I have no middle name and she hates her middle name. I tried to convince my hubby to call me Red during family get togethers that include her, but he says that is not my name and he wouldn't use it.

well, I only suggested it because a number of other people already call me Red and I would know to look up when I hear it... but hubby doesn't like it.
