39th. 129,805 of us, the most being just over 8000 in South Yorkshire. Makes sense as my father was from Barnsley. Spookily, my partner has the same surname (though I refer to her as Mrs P, we're not married).

Hmmm...

..my surname is 39th too but it says 12,843 people have the same surname in Essex.

Sorry, your search didn't return any results because we don't have enough data for this surname (nonexistent or less than 1300 records).

Well that makes me special then. Though I can tell them that it is most common in the South East part of Kent.

I also appear to be special, however my surname is very common in the Ilse of wight

Anyone out there wondered where other people with the same surname live across the U.K?

People who are have researched their ancestry may be aware of this website All about surnames - soFeminine.co.uk

? If you type in your surname it will not only tell you how many people in the UK share your surname but in which region the name is most common.

My surname is shared by 3320 people in the UK 3064 of them in Portsmouth and Bournmouth!!!

Sorry if ‘fixtures’ thought it might be of interest?
COMIC GENIUS :lolol:

This thing is a bit odd - apparently by county, Brighton & Hove has the highest number of my surname. I am certain it would be London, Birmingham or Glasgow areas, and I know for a fact there are not 1,762 of us in Brighton and Hove.

Just over 100k people with my surname, mostly in Hereford and Worcester plus Cardiff...which isn't much of a surprise, wasn't particularly common when I lived in Sussex and isn't that common where I live now...but drive 20 miles or so to the west and it is common as muck!
