The HowManyOfMe meme stems from a website of the same name that allows users to search for the frequency of their first and last names in the United States. It became a viral sensation as users shared screenshots showing they were the only person with their specific name, often implying a 'main character' status or an eerie sense of uniqueness. Finding out thousands of people share your name often leads to jokes about being an 'NPC' or part of a clone army. The meme is typically used to highlight how rare or common a person's identity is, frequently paired with dramatic reaction images from movies or other internet tropes to emphasize the shock of the statistical results.
