Josh, That's struck me as strange as hell also. My last name is not common, but it's nothing special. When I meet someone with my last name, we always talk about it for a minute or two.
I asked both of them if they'd ever met another person with their name, and they both said no. My friend had only met one other person with her first name which is actually Bailey. So, to be standing next to another Bailey with your own last name. I would think there would be a lot to talk about. Apparently not.
