Even James Montgomery Jackson is not unique, although of those living, I think I am the oldest.<br /><br />I’ve met several people (not including relatives) who share my first and last names. Most times when I’ve seen my co-named fellows' names in print it's because they’re now dead or have been convicted of a crime. Occasionally they are heroes. All-in-all, I’ll stick with my life. I’ve earned all my own scars and wrinkles and creases. I don’t really want to try to fit into someone else’s skin.<br /><br />~ Jim<br />Jim Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15090252530437277145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-66033345082665230312014-11-28T11:58:27.253-05:002014-11-28T11:58:27.253-05:00My namesake, slightly different spelling of her fi...My namesake, slightly different spelling of her first name--Cara Cerise--is an inspiring young woman. She’s in her early twenties and has already helped HIV impoverished youth in Brazil, led her high school social-justice club, created an advocacy group in Utah for kids of gay parents, and is launching a women’s health campaign. She was named Utah's Young Humanitarian in 2011. <br /><br />I also found out that Kara Cerise is the name of a hot pink full length ruffle dress sold at the Dollywood Boutique in the UK.Kara Cerisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16484336785514235707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-15836342655301359762014-11-28T11:28:22.941-05:002014-11-28T11:28:22.941-05:00I found two other Kathleen Rockwoods, both in the ...I found two other Kathleen Rockwoods, both in the medical field (a doctor and a midwife)<br /><br />KM Rockwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03973749764907859829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-66231983490409633262014-11-28T11:14:09.657-05:002014-11-28T11:14:09.657-05:00Warren, out of curiosity I Googled my name - somet...Warren, out of curiosity I Googled my name - something I hadn't done in several years or more - and still found there was only one more Gloria Alden, who still lived in Houston, is in her 60s, and at one time had a business called Gloria's Designs.<br />Even more interesting was the long list following my name with all the interviews, etc. I'd given on blogs and each book I had out. Compared to Houston Gloria, I'm quite a famous person. :-)Gloria Aldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581719606924364447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-68027868015244998042014-11-28T10:58:15.535-05:002014-11-28T10:58:15.535-05:00Nope, the only other Kait Carson I've found is...Nope, the only other Kait Carson I've found is a teen in high school.

That was pretty strange. You, Warren, have a good solid English name - I would expect you would find a number of alter egos. Sounds like a plot to me.Kaithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07758348842858993203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-2198294644717235102014-11-28T05:39:32.723-05:002014-11-28T05:39:32.723-05:00At least in the U.S., I'm unique as is my daug...At least in the U.S., I'm unique as is my daughter. My husband and son have namesakes in Indiana, who are a father and son dentistry team of the same approximate ages. They must be related to us since the last name is so unique, and we aren't very creative when it comes to naming children. The wife/mom must not be named Elaine because there are no other than me in the country. It would seem that since I am unique that the use of a pseudonym is a good idea. Unfortunately, so many of the authors I've interviewed have advertised the blog using my real name, the pseudonym is a joke. Oh well, in the age of social media there is no thing as privacy.E. B.
