I have an unusual surname. It is ridiculously British. It could only get more British if it were hyphenated. Preferably with Smythe or Chipping.

It is 4496th in the US census, meaning there are 4495 more common ones.

There are 7263 people with my surname in this country.
5226 of them are white.
I find it interesting that almost a hundred are Hispanic.

If you sampled 100,000 people, you might find 3 with my surname. Maybe two, but more likely 3. (I haven't yet met 2/3rds of a person)

We rate right under Fazio, Calvillo, Wallen and Lung, right above Turney, Steadman, Battles and Berlin.
