Two Finnish names on top 10 there??? Wow. I wouldn't have believed that. Aalto (Wave) is a somewhat common name here in Finland but I haven't actually heard of Aaltomaa (Waveland) before.

I question the accuracy of that part of the webpage myself. I'm more familiar with Oshawa area names and don't think they were too accurate.

None anywhere! They have no record of anybody with my last name. Aside from myself, among the living I know of a half dozen people in Germany with my last name.

I'm surprised, really, considering I haven't run into a lot of people who use that spelling, and Nashville is second on the Top Cities list. Who knew?
