I wanted to do the same thing, no results! I guess thats what having obscure names is all about

Yeah I wouldn't expect many streets are named "qqg3".

I tried to search for something I could take as a cosmic sign, inputting my girlfriend's name and then my own. Nada. Zippo. Zilch.

We were however eating in a restaurant last year, a pizza place where people scribbled on the walls in marker, kind of an added character thing. Above my girlfriend's left shoulder were our names in faded writing, dated 4 years prior. We do not have fairly common names, so I'll take that as my sign.

Anyway, I digress. This is pretty cool and I have sent it along to my friends.

Do you interpret it as a positive sign (since your names were there) or negative sign (since the writing has faded)..?

Good question...I would say a positive sign. Although faded, the names were still there four years later — kind of like how initial infatuation fades but hopefully the deeper love stays strong?

Maybe a reach.
