I'm sure we have all googled our own name at least once in our lifetime. Well there I was No2 spot on google behind A Spitfighter Ace from WWII. Now I've just noticed I'm at No3 behind some unknown John Doe - I'm Gutted.

Good job I never went into Website development - don't think I could handle the downgrade.

Not sure how many other websites like this exist or their accuracy.

There is a Chris Duggan Facebook group, rather randomly trying to connect everyone called Chris Duggan (I am not a member)

The Google comes up with all sorts of folk. Doctors, actors, photographers, various other professionals. Chris, Christopher obviosuly being common as, and Duggan being relatively common. Not much unique or unusual.

I own the co .uk I remember letting it drop some years ago and someone else used it for a while before I re registered it recently. Dont really use it but its there.. Somewhere.
 
It's interesting: 9 of the first 10 results for my full name are related to me, then almost none of the second page are (and thank goodness, they're mainly obituaries!). It's almost as if Google's algorithm has sorted the references into "me" and "everyone of the same name as me"!
 
All the front page are mine, though not a surprise. I'm one of only a handful with my name. The surname isn't common. The top 2 are my Nominet DRS consultancy pdf links!

Others are cycling activities!
