One.
I remember when I used to go to xanga and I would see so many people with the last name Nguyen and I would ask my friend with that last name if they were all related to her. heh. I didn't know it was a really popular last name.

Ahh, I always wondered how that was pronounced. I think I know like 2-3 people with that last name in real life.

Smith is the #1 most common last name, what a surprise.

I don't actually know any Vietnamese (or Asian, for that matter) people personally anyway, except my cousin's husband who is Vietnamese.. I'm pretty sure his last name isn't Nguyen though.
