I found the link to the same info, but not searchable. PM me if you're interested. (I edited out the link when I realized that with it and the other replies on the thread I would be giving out people's real last names.) It's very, very, very odd. Beyond #2000 (coincidentally Reagan) there are larger and larger numbers of names tied and arranged in reverse alphabetical order. So the ranking is pretty much meaningless the lower and lower you go; it might be wrong by hundreds towards the bottom.

6. type your name and then choose find definition
If your name is not totally bizarre, a definition will pop up, and at the bottom will be a numerical ranking.. My maiden name was so wacky, it did not register :)

19. Mine wasn't in there at all
and I did follow the instructions with the "Find Definition" option. It said:

"Sorry, we don't have a definition for this word or name. It may be a proper noun or a part of speech not covered by our dictionary."

I suspected that, because only about 5 people in the United States have my last name and they're all in my family.
