So while a name might account for less than 1% of the population in the province, it's 10% in one town. Or maybe not that high, but you get the idea. We think it's funny to look at the war monuments in some Calabrian towns and find how many people with the same name as ours.   <strong><em>Are none of them related to you, even distantly? I wouldn't really know from a personal experience, but the guests we've had here at our B&B have all met relatives with their last names when visiting the small villages around us. I guess they were lucky!</em></strong>   Funny, I’ve had the opposite experience — found that certain last names are VERY common in some small towns in Calabria.
