Here's a another way to waste time -- www.placesnamed.com. If you want to know all the zip codes in Seattle, for instance, or more importantly where there are towns named Tiger, this is your place.
It is also, strangely, full of census data on name frequency. My last name is the 43,063rd most popular last name (surname) in the United States, my first name the 88th most popular female first name. For fun, try and guess the most popular male and female first names. It's much more staid and English than you'd think. Give up? XX & XY.
