Alter Egos

A friend with far too much time on his hands recently informed me that 279 people in the United States share my first and last names. According to How Many of Me, my given name is the fourth most popular (no surprise), while my surname ranks 1,664th. (The most common first name in the country: James. Most common last name: Smith.)

More amusing were his efforts with anagram Web sites, of which there are many. My first and last names, he reported, can be rearranged as Jackal Chime or Camel Hijack. Throwing in my middle name yields something truly special: Aha! Jerk clean climaxed!
