There are 332,432,401 people in the United States of America. If everyone in the U.S. lined up single file, the line would stretch around the Earth almost 7 times. That's a lot of people.

The U.S. Census Bureau statistics tell us that there are at least 151,671 different last names and 5,163 different first names in common use in the United States. Some names are more common than others.

There are 48,067 people named John Smith in the United States. There are 1,045 people named James Bond, 110 people named Harry Potter , 468 people named George Bush, and 34 people named Emily Dickinson. However, Johnny Cash (35 people) songs aside there are, statistically speaking, very few boys named Sue.
