I did an analysis of the people I know and I know more people born on Sept 18 then any other day. I know exactly 15 people born than day. And I am sure I know more (when you consider that I only know the birthdays of about a 1/4 of the people I know).
For instance, I only know 5 people born on Nov 14 (nine months from Valentine’s day).
ok auren, as one of your sept 18th friends, i want to know the other 14 🙂
I got engaged on December 18th, does that count?
Might be that people are a bit tipsy from the holiday parties, etc.
I had heard a myth that a day in October was the most common birth day in the US, making February the most romantic month.
A tiny bit of Googling came up with this:

and the money quote so to speak:
“Oct. 5, it reports, is the most common birthday in the United States. An average 12,576 people are born on this day each year.”
