        Do you get emails from other random Onyeyiri's who are trying to track down relatives? My surname (Munn - I'm not afraid of people knowing my name, I just tend to prefer to use a handle, as I always have online) is more common in some areas (Ireland, Scotland, bits of France) than it is in the rest of the world (England and America especially), so I tend to get lots of emails from random people who are trying to trace their family tree -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

                    Yeah, I just did a search on 192.com and it lists 3 Onyeyiris (2 in essex and 1 in london) It gives a mobile number for the essex address. Scary (It's a damn shame you have to pay to get credits on 192.com, although you can get a very small number of free credits by opting in to spam. good job the email address on my 192 account isn't valid any more :-D ) -- Help me!

                                          I just had a look in the phone book, and there were only two onyeyiri's, one was my house, the other was my aunts.....makes me feel special, having a rare name. :-D

                                          What is the ethnic origin of your name? Onyeyiri doesn't exactly sound Anglo-Saxon, so I would suppose it is not too surprising that there are so few in England. Small island, after all. "Human imagination has been sculpted by the universe within which it was born" Hmmmm...
