   But, occupant is not really a proper noun; so, how can it be a common name?

   If all of for-profit corporations/companies had to pay regular 1st Class postage for all of their bulk 1st Class USPS mailings, there would no need to raise postage rates nor lay off letter carriers.

   I knew a teacher whose last name was “Garcia;” but, she pronounced it as “garsh-ya.” She was a natural blonde, too. We taught in the same little town in Kansas, SW of Wichita.

   I knew a guy who was a Mexican-American and a native of Colorado when I was in Vietnam, Rosales jokingly told people his surname was “Row-sails.”

   You had to bring up the suggestion, Tía Carmen.

   I guess with English last names, the common ones are Smith and Jones. Glad I’m not neither one of those.

   Also, it’d have to be Hansen and Andersen for common Scandinavian last names.

    That page relates to the 1990 census. In 2000, Garcia and Rodriguez moved up to eighth and ninth, respectively:

    Heck, I have two nieces and a nephew whose last name is Rodriguez. Didn’t have to tell me that. :)
