I don't think I have seen anyone with both my first and last name, but I have an unusual first name (at least for a guy).

Does "Carrie" count for me? Different gender and different spelling, but then again the vast majority of people who share my name are ladies.

(BTW, having a girl's name is pretty traumatic growing up. No one seems to remember Cary Grant. Heck, I would even settle for Cary Elwes. Instead they think of Sarah Jessica Parker's character from Sex in the City or Princess Leia.)

Another one would be Carey Mahoney, Steven Guttenberg's character from "Police Academy".

A name I do see a lot is a producer named Gary Barber. His name appears in a lot of comedies. Pretty close, but no cigar.

"That sounds like a stage name for someone who performs in gay adult videos. "
My brother and I used to joke about that name with our folks, thanking them for not naming either of us Phillip [Razz]
