That's a blow to the ego. Entered my surname in and got "Name not found". I thought (and the phone book seems to agree) that my surname isn't especially rare. edit: Phew.

Hnnnngggg I just realized how much I'd struggle with not naming twin boys dante and vergil I am awful
My last name doesn't appear in either database. But it isn't a blow to the ego for me, it just means my last name is very unique (in America)
my middle name is entirely forgettable
last name is a Sicilian variation on a very ancient European surname that is so old it has essentially no meaning
I've never met anyone who had it who was not a member of my immediate family
