    I say its S. E is the most commonly used in teh English language, but not many names start with vowels. R is the most common consonant, but not many start with R. S is the second most common consonant, and a lot start with S.

    I'd say E since it's a pretty common vowel in many languages including english.

    Guess what? My name means nothing!

    Incidentally, this wouldn't be that hard to find out if you make the directory sort by name and remember that there's 20 names per page.

    8people is on page 469 of the Community directory if you sort by names. The last 4 pages are those SPers with numbers or symbols starting their names. See here.

    'D' is winning!

    /me votes 's'


    I would think S is the most common, it is one of the most common letters of the alphabet... at least the english one.
