According to a Harvard University study on birthdays from 1973 to 1999, the most common day is October 16th and least common day is December 25th.

Does your birthday day fall on one of these two days? Do you know someone whose birthday falls on one of these two days? (The year doesn't matter.)

My ex-roommate was born on December 25th, but she's the only person I know. Now, my oldest nephew was born on December 26th, and my sister-in-law (his mother) was born on December 23rd.

I can't think of anyone I know with a birthday on either of those dates. That's really weird though!

The study suggests that those born on October 16th are the result of the holiday season's last days in December and the beginning of January. The December birthday most likely resulting from Valentine's celebrations. I'm pretty sure I am a result of Thanksgiving sex. LOL

I don't know anybody born on either of those days, but I know a bunch of people born in early to mid October. In fact, I also know more than one person born in early October that was the result of the Bears winning the superbowl in 1986.

I'm a result of Halloween sex! LOL (mid-July)

I did know two kids (separate grades) in school who were born on Christmas. I probably knew quite a few people born on 10/16, but I forgot since it's not a special date.
