WEIRD: Kelly Hildebrandt to marry Kelly Hildebrandt: Facebook gets helps same name couple to fall in love and marry!
This October, Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt, 20, and Kelly Carl Hildebrandt, 24, are planning to get married at the Lighthouse Point Yacht & Racquet Club in South Florida.
One night Kelly Hildebrandt was feeling bored and so like what most of us do when we get bored - she plugged in her name in facebook to find people sharing the same name. There was only one match - Kelly Hildebrandt from Lubbock, Texas.
So she sent him a message.
"She said 'Hi. We had the same name. Thought it was cool,'" Kelly Carl Hildebrandt said. "I thought she was pretty cute."
But there were also concerns.
"I thought, man, we've got to be related or something," he said.
For the next three months the two exchanged e-mails. Before he knew it, occasional phone calls turned into daily chats, sometimes lasting hours. He visited her in Florida after a few months and "fell head over heels."
"I thought it was fun," he said of that first online encounter. "I had no idea that it would lead to this."
Months after Kelly Hildebrandt sent her first e-mail, she found a diamond engagement ring hidden in treasure box on a beach in December.
"I totally think that it's all God's timing," Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt said. "He planned it out just perfect."
She's a student at a local community college. He works in financial services. They plan to make their home in South Florida.
It hasn't been all smooth sailing. A trip on a cruise ship almost got canceled when the travel agent deleted one ticket from the system, thinking someone had plugged in the same information twice.
There was also some uncertainty about how to phrase their wedding invitations, so they decided to include their middle names. But any confusion likely won't carry on past the husband and wife. Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt said there are no plans to pass along the name to future children.

When I searched the names, I get too many hits. Wonder if the story is really about finding some random guy, starting with the same name? No matter how it started, I hope they have a great marriage and married life.
I can just imagine the confusion in the household!
