In the US, which I meant to be implicit in my reply to Tristan's remark
that an American "Keith" felt odd, but of course you don't know that
I'm in the US. :) I live in Atlanta.

It is, as you said, not as common as John or Mark (or David; sheesh, so many
Davids in my generation!!), but I wouldn't go so far as to call it
uncommon. I'd say it's a second-tier name, below John et al but well
above, say, Sebastian. :)
