From Taylor and Travis to Victoria and David, many celebrity couples have names that just seem to belong together.
But have you ever wondered which names people with your name are most likely to marry?
A new interactive tool called 'Who Wed Who' reveals who people with your first or last name tend to end up with.
The tool is the brainchild of American software engineer, Riley Waltz, who based it on the names of more than six million married couples in the US.
'I scraped 6.4 million couples' names from The Knot, a popular American wedding registry,' he explained.
'Type any first or last name and see who people with that name actually married.'
The tool has already proved popular on social media, with many users taking to X to share their results.
'I don't think I've ever dated an Emily, Taylor, Sarah, or Ashley. Apparently a mistake on my part,' one user joked.

To try the tool, visit Waltz' website here, and start by typing either your first or last name into the box, and clicking 'Search'.
Within seconds, you'll see lists of who people with your name most often marry, as well as the names they marry surprisingly often.
For example, if your first name is Rose, you'll find that people with your name tend to marry men named John, Michael, David, Chris, and Daniel.
They also have a 162x higher chance of marrying a Frantz, a 96x higher chance of ending up with a Mayme, and a 53x higher chance of settling down with a Claudio.
Meanwhile, if, like me, your surname is Best, the tool will tell you that people with your surname tend to marry people with the surname Smith, Brown, Johnson, White, and Miller.
