Know anybody with the name "Canada"?
I've never met anybody with the last name of Canada, but 87 people in the state of Missouri have it as a last name. Why I know is that I'm in Kansas City, Missouri right now for Travel Media Showcase and I Googled "Missouri Canada" and came up with this information from WhitePages.com:
Canada is the 3,214th ranked last name in Missouri. It's right between Brauer (3,213) and Chang (3,215).
Top states for the last name Canada
1. Texas 286 listings
2. California 179 listings
3. Virginia 157 listings
