When I was working in the U.S. I was surprised to see the great variety of surnames. I looked at the directory and there were about 200 engineers in the building. There was not a single repeated surname. It was interesting the great variety of origins. (e.g Polish, German, Spanish, Arab, Indian, etc, etc.) On the other hand a lot of people had the same names. (John, Mike, Dave) Here in Latin America is different, many people share the same family names, but we have more variety of first names.
