My problem is Bills. In any crowd or waiting room
they sound too much the same. Then I become
Phillip ;-)

Too many Phils! :-)
It is a new problem for me. Throughout all of my childhood, in school, and
such, having the name phil has made me unique. There were all kinds of Jims,
Bobs, Mikes, Daves, Dicks, but rarely any other phils. My best friend in
6th/7th grade (now also a FB friend) is the only other phil I ever knew in
school (grade school and high school).
If you want to see how rare your name is, go to Wolfram Alpha and type in your
name. It will show you a graph of the names popularity over the years and also
its rank in terms of names and even how many people alive today have that name
(probably US data only). Web site is: www.wolframalpha.com.
You can keep Phil Wheeler and I separate by noting that my name is lower case
and his is capitalized.
