How Many Names Do I Know?!

From vlogbrothers.

GRANT PROPOSAL DETAILS BELOW

This has been straight up BUGGING me!! Perhaps I did not do a full research review and there is better data out there somewhere, but this would be an amazing science fact and also very interesting to track across time! There’s no doubt I currently know a historically humongous number of names, but then…how high? How high could it go? How many names does Ken Jennings know? I feel like I could definitely get him to take the test. THIS MIGHT ACTUALLY BE FUN!?!?
