Use of doppelganger

Hi

I bumped into the word doppelganger twice this week in two different texts. Would you say that it is a common word in spoken English?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi

It isn't really a common word, although maybe it should be

It means that you have met someone who reminds you of yourself, or someone who reminds you of someone else that you know

It is interesting but, to be honest, no, not a well-known word
