Poll question: In this Google era, is it better to have a unique or generic name?

People with generic names cannot really be googled so it's not even worth trying (i.e., someone with a common first name and the last name Smith, for example). Then again, it might be easier to steal the identity of someone with a unique name. What do you guys think?
