So i guess i will have to sit and be easy on my thrown with my unpopular name and enjoy being the ONLY ONE!! One step down from you but still Princess Amberlee... well, i laughed and then cried and then laughed again becuase i came to realize you, being a Damon, at least have people to compare your name to… i however (being princess Amberlee) have no one to look up to or compare myself with. you at least have actors and poeple of that nature to look apon and shake your fist at and wonder how they came to be more famous then “king Damon.” but that is ok, i came second to the king which is why i have the princess status… So i guess i will have to sit and be easy on my thrown with my unpopular name and enjoy being the ONLY ONE!!

I also get Darren and occasionally Derek. I try and tell people "No, Damon, as in Damon Hill the F1 driver of yester year", only to be greeted with blank stares. So then I try "Like Damon Albarn, the singer from Blur". Again, absolutely no recognition. As a last gasp, I say "Damon, just like Matt Damon", all the while all I can think about is the Matt Damon character in Team America: World Police, and it makes me sad that people might draw a correlation between that character and me. Which leads me onto your next very valid point: <blockquote> the likes of Matt Damon and Johnny Damon have set all of us back into the Dark Ages of Damon </blockquote> From one Damon (who likes to think he is funny), to another (who apparently isn't funny), a very entertaining post.

Just another Damon in the world, we are a rare and unique find. Not sure if you are the “King Damon” however :) I am the Damon of the road trip.
