    Pretty common, even though it is Slavic or Hungarian:

    Not at all really, but go to Scotland, and its like smith or jones in England...
    Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems such as those connected with reality... Existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind and language... It strikes me as peculiar that most concern themselves solely with language, the least of all philosophies...

    My grandmother maiden surname shared only with her brother due to an error in the record, but I know many people with surnames which numbers are less than 50-100 for a whole country according to data.

    I have two, an Italian and a British. The Italian is not common, but can be found in São Paulo and in other states that received Italian immigration. My British surname is rare here, and it seems to be not so common even in Britain, even though it is a very Anglo-Saxon surname.
