being un-googleable is seriously underrated. if I ever had kids I'd give them the most common names possible for exactly that reason. Sure it can be annoying when you're the 8th John in your class but that's a lot easier to get used to than the amount of bullying and harassment you could get for having a really uncommon name, especially if it's a silly name or shared name with garbage famous person
Yeah, I have an extremely unusual name. From what I can tell there are at most three other people in the world with the same name as me, and none of them lives here in the US.
Leaving aside the fun of being hassled for having a weird name when I was a kid, as an adult I am very careful about what I put online, since there is no way to hide it. If it’s in English and connected with my name, it unquestionably concerns me.
I feel this comment.
