For added fun in my classes, all of the girls who were named Jennifer had last names from the latter half of the alphabet. So it would end up being five or six of us crammed into the last two rows, which was not in the least bit confusing when the teacher would turn around from the blackboard to see all of our hands raised to answer a question and say, "Yes, Jennifer?"
I think at one point in my childhood, we were Jen, Jenn, Jennifer, Jennie Ann, Jenny, and the sixth one depended on who was stuck going by their last name. (Which was me a lot of the time, because I was the only one aside from my eight-years-younger brother in the county's school-going population who had that name.)
