I'm also a photographer as well as being an author, a police officer (in the actual region I live), an Oxford professor of Philosophy, a chemist in Wales and an osteopath in the north of England. No wonder I'm so damned tired all the time!

Using the version of my name that I most commonly use, I'm a TV presenter, a barman in East Sussex, a lawyer in Dayton, Ohio and a blues musician.

Apparently I'm a surfer, a long distance runner, and a few teenagers. Not much variety, but I guess my name isn't the most common. ;p

There are eight people on Facebook with my name.

I make glass beads in the west country, and I'm an artist who owns an art gallery in Mississippi.

Last month I ran a half-marathon to raise money for Help for Heroes.

If I'm not bothered about having my name spelt the man's way, I have been Chancellor of a university in NE England, where a language school is named after me, and I was also the chairman of the local football club.

No, not really. I'm just on Facebook.

We just went through this on the The Vicious Circle chat. I'm the only one of me in the US. The first page and a half of results are for me. It's mostly "find out more about you for free(19.95 for the membership though)." There are a few newspaper articles and a horrid quiz I wrote in high school in which one of the answers is incorrect, though.

I'm the only one with the name I use in the whole wide world. My maiden name has about twenty five though. There is a good photographer with my maiden name.
I'm listed for quite a few different things on there, most of which are true.

Seems like I'm famous for being a champion builder with LEGO. I saw a picture of one of his creations: a giant LEGO hotdog, complete with tomato sauce and mustard. Well, that's something to aspire to... There is also heaps of people with my name on Facebook and Twitter, neither of which I have an account for. My name is pretty common, by the looks of it.

I participated in a few “Braille Readers are Leaders” contests. Never won, but got an honorary mention… so that comes up on a Google search. And, of course, I’m on Facebook. But… as I haven’t looked in a while… just out of curiosity…

I saw some links I’d seen before—and a few others, which isn’t surprising as I now have my name on more sites than I used to. One site even (the yellow pages) lists me as the only one in the U.S. with my name [unique spelling and all that]. Good smile

I probably have a name that's unique on the world (the last name has about 20 bearers that can be googled and the first is also very rare), so I only find myself. There are various mentions, both for the occasional article about broadcast technology that I have published and for my involvement in running tournaments for a certain collectible card game.
