Find out where your last name is most common

AUSTRALIA 27.96
NEW-ZEALAND 20.1
CANADA 9.17
FRANCE 7.4
UNITED KINGDOM 7.29

I thought it might be a little more common in the UK as that's where my family emmigrated from, but i guess they all buggered off elsewhere lol.

Woo! I'm more than happy to claim you as an Aussie! :D <3

Wow, this is kind of cool. Apparently my surname is most popular in Ireland. I wonder if I might have some links to that country on my father's side? I don't know much about their lineage. I've always just assumed that we were Australian, but it would be awesome if I had a bit of Irish in me down the line somewhere. Might also explain why I have always wanted to go to Ireland (and Germany, but that's unrelated). MOTHERLAND. LOLOL.

IRELAND 17.49
UNITED KINGDOM 7.91
NEW-ZEALAND 6.7
CANADA 0.69
UNITED STATES 0.25
