Unrelated Twins

It was a strange shocker when Lori and I came across two people with the same names as a set o
f twins on Facebook.
 
It wasn't unusual that the people shared the "same name"s.  It was unusual how the two people weren't even related, and had the exact first and last names as a set of twins ... go figure.  But, it got me to wondering about the connectivity of people having the same names.  Not just same names, but having the exact same first and last names; could there be an underlying similarity of the people having the same names?
 
Of course, you have a world of John's, James, and Mary's.  But how often do you run across two entirely different people, from two completely opposite sides of the map, having the same first and last names?  But, even more to that, the people having no relation, nor knowledge of one another ... how strange is that?
 
It may not surprise many.  But, a over-analytical person such as myself, this sort of 'strange' [coincidence] has my radar beeping like crazy.  The [coincidence] has me wondering how could it be possible, and then again, it amazes me how close the world really is ... yet, to be so expanded.
 
Here's wishing the very best of this New Year to all of you, and thanks for supporting my writing/blogging/rants, and raves (smile)

I am told everyone has a double but having the same name is unusual. In my previous life (ex husband) there was a lady who lived on the same street that I lived on with the same first and last name but different middle initials. I found out when creditors for her started calling me and then her name showed up on one of my credit reports. What a mess trying to get that straightened out. I guess anything is possible. Interesting article. Linda D
