I usually put where or how I know someone as their last name in my contacts. Think "Angie - Cyclone Fanatic" as the contact.

Tinder is my number one word lol

I don't even have to look.

Bill.

In Florida there are about 5 or 6 in our building that we all kind of bro-hang for afternoon cigars (no I don't) and drinks in the afternoon poolside.

Plus several from school/work etc.

Not on topic, but have a friend that is from a family of 15 kids. I'm friends with several of them and a lot of their kids. Between them and their spouses, one last name occupies an inordinate share of my contact list

Surprised that Matt/Matthew wins my phone with 9

Mike/Michael in a close second with 8

Chad, John, Jason, and Tyler were all in the next tier. Same names are at the top, but this area is where you can spot the decade for everyone.

A better question for me is how many people are in my phone from over the last 20ish years that I don't even remember or know why they'd be in my phone.

I thought of that when I was scrolling through my phone rolodex.

I seem to have 3 categories within that:

1: Names I recognize, haven't interacted recently, but I have a basic idea why I added them.
2: Names I recall, but have to think a while who they are/why I added them.
3: Names I don't recognize at all.

As @drlove posted earlier in the thread, I need to do some clean-up.

3 - Steve/Steven
3 - Becky/Becki/Rebecca
2 of each - Jennifer/Jenna/Jessica/Ashley/Derek/Lyn(n)/Linda/Tim

I truly do not have as many contacts as I thought I had.

I actually don't have very many contacts in my phone, which an employee at a us cellular store made fun of me for once. The only multiple I have is Keith (2).
