It also means that 9 months prior this auspicious day is also the date that your parents got on the train to sexy town.

Researchers at Harvard University found that September 16 is the most common birthday.

Think about it. You know someone with that birthday, don't you!

Hooray for them.

The data was collated by Harvard economist Amitabh Chandra, who compiled a list of the birthrates on each day between 1973-1999 in the USA.

If you celebrate a September 16 birthday, you'll be partying alongside Ian Harding, Flo Rida and Nick Jonas.

The New York Timesalso published a chart of the births recorded on each date.

Due to the leap year, the least common birthday was 29 Feb.
