I feel a bit sorry for people whose name is TOO common. My first name is neither common (e.g. Bob) nor unique (e.g. Attila), so when I hear someone say it, chances are good that they want to talk to me.
In fact, when I meet someone who shares the same name, I almost always say, "Hello, me!" and they seem to get the joke.
My first name does have some (humorous) baggage however, which was a bit damaging psychologically growing up. Said baggage probably contributed to the name becoming rather unpopular after the mid 1960s.
