How many people in general do you know with the same name as you also play badminton?

How many professional badminton players have the same name as you?

(same name being First and Last)

:cool:

sorry, shoulda put this in the general forum.

but trying to relate this more for here...

What professional player(s) do you think you play like the most? being it style, favorite shots, technique, etc.

I'm not even sure what my name is. In the last few tournaments i entered, they've consistently spelt my name wrong. Amazing considering it's only five letters for both first and last name combined...

lol, how can you not be sure what your own name is?

anyways, this thread is only asking for the number of ppl with same name as you. (ppl don't have to put their names down)

In the badminton club I am in, there is another player with the same name as me. We sign up on a board for the next available court to play and sometimes they see the other guy on the court and they cross out my name while I wait for my turn to play

nobody !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apparently my surname is ranked the 2923rd most common in the UK, so no - I don't share a name with anyone famous.

I never really understood how China manage - they have over a billion people, and only a hundred or so common names to go around. The logistics for the government, banks etc must be an absolute nightmare.

Richard Vaughn is My company director...

lol, how can you not be sure what your own name is?

it was a joke...

you could always use an alternate name. for example, if your name is John Lee (and the other person's name is also John Lee), you could just put your name down as Johnny

I'd be surprised if there was anyone in the world with the same name as me... But I think I saw a guy called Nathan Robertson playing in some NZ tournament. Might be getting confused though.

it was a joke...
i was being sarcastic :p?

hmm, maybe not the word for it.

i guess jokingly putting it up there

dont think anybody has my exact same 1st, middle and last name even 1st and last might be pushing it. nobody else on the world rankings with my last name either so ill always know where i am.

more importantly - how many people do you know have the same first and last name, the first and last name same as your first and last name, and the same first and last name as your first and last name same as professional player's first and last name?
