Alvarez Ranks at 132

In U.S. Name Count, Garcias Are Catching Up With Joneses

Smith remains the most common surname in the United States, according to a new analysis released yesterday by the Census Bureau. But for the first time, two Hispanic surnames — Garcia and Rodriguez — are among the top 10 most common in the nation, and Martinez nearly edged out Wilson for 10th place.

My surname, Alvarez, comes in at 132nd place, up 88 spots from 220 in the last version of this list. Two of my roommates’ surnames don’t make the cut of the top 5,000 most common surnames, though their first names are beyond common.
