I have read this information with great interest. This statistic is very interesting. But at the same time, I was surprised. Something I don't understand (February 3). Something contradicts my personal picture of the world (Among my acquaintances there are several people with "rare" dates of birthdays. My birthday is also on the list of rare dates))))))). I didn't know.
But all this is very interesting. Thank you.

I have friends who were born on November 27, January 1, December 31. One of my relatives was born on December 24th.
If you asked me if I have two people I know who were born on the same date, I would answer you - no.
Because I don't have two, three or four people I know who were born on the same date.
But I have five acquaintances who were born on the same date))))))).
Four of these five people are male. Two of them have the same first name. The other two of them also have the same first name. Three of them were born in the same year (on the same day). The lady was born exactly 25 years after the three men who were born in the same year were born.
Cool, right? I'm surprised myself.)
I think this is not the limit. And one day I will meet a sixth adult or child, who was born on the same date))))

I was very surprised by the information that no one was born on February 3rd.
I think that the sources you used gave you statistics only on the most famous personalities in the world or only in the USA. (Presidents, dictators, terrorists and other loudest names. These are names that will forever remain in the history of mankind. These are winners and commanders. And these are fascists and scoundrels.)
I have just opened wikipedia. (I know this is not a 100% reliable source. But for now I will take information from this source).
Born February 3 (I chose the names of people only from the USA):
1807 – Joseph Johnston (d. 1891), brigadier general in the US Army and general in the Confederate Army during the Civil War.
1811 – Horace Greeley (d. 1872), American journalist and politician who ran in the 1872 presidential election
1821 - Elizabeth Blackwell (d. 1910), the first woman in the United States to receive a medical degree.
1823 – Spencer Fullerton Baird (d. 1887), American ornithologist, ichthyologist and herpetologist
1874 - Gertrude Stein (d. 1946), American writer and literary theorist
1894 – Norman Rockwell (d. 1978), American painter and illustrator
1939 - Michael Cimino (d. 2016), American film director, screenwriter and producer, Oscar winner, Golden Globe winner.
1947 – Paul Auster, American novelist, translator and screenwriter
1965 - Maura Tierney, American film and television actress, winner of the Golden Globe.

First I'd want to say thank you for finding that interesting and secondly (sadly) for pointing out that once again you can only believe half of what you read. I'll get back to that in a second.
Your second post was fascinating in itself, some would say what a coincidence but I don't believe in coincidences.. everything happens for a reason. I'm so happy that you shared that. Some things boggle the mind. 😅
Ok back to stats that I got off of Google, yes comment did say people in history. I found that odd too with over 7 billion people on the planet Earth now and all that were born and are now deceased since some form of record keeping was kept. But I came across it after asking Mr. Google the most popular birth month and was intrigued by this factoid.
I don't like to give or receive false information and this disturbs me. I can't edit my comment as the 24 hours have passed, will ask @Diamond_Lim if she can help.
I just asked Google again a couple of different ways the question and the same answer with the same wording is what comes up over and over after clicking on several links. The absolute nerve of some people spreading false facts, am thinking maybe this is an Urban Myth of some kind.
I have heard of most of those people you listed myself and I am not the smartest person in the room. I'm very sorry that it was false and will edit if I can or if someone can strike that from my post.
Thank you for pointing this out, I guess I won't be relying on Google any more as a single source.
You said your birthday was on a rare date too, but can't find you in Lim's list.. care to share?🤗 Was thinking in December?
