Is there any stat to know the number of Legendary right now on BitcoinTalk?
There were 2144 Legendary users based on a few stats published 2 months ago in this[1] thread. The number should be pretty much the same (with maybe just a few new Legendaries) since you need a lot of merit to rank up and it has been only 2 months.

It's already far too common. Any shitposter who has just been here a couple of years prior to the merit system became one and it's mostly meaningless when that happens.

Theymos created the Legendary rank a few years ago I believe, but can't say for certain about all the others. I wonder if we'll ever get Lamborghini Member  Grin? We're going to need another rank above Legendary eventually (if we don't already). Not sure what it should be called, but others have suggested some titles somewhere. I think the new rank should require a very high level of activity just so it sets you apart from everyone else and so that rank doesn't become too common like Legendary has now.

Legendary is not too common IMHO. Especially after merit is introduced, we will have very few legendary is coming years...

Did satohsi decide the rank names or have they been done individually since then?
Also, has it always been Brand new, newbie, jr member, member, full member, sr member, hero member and legendary member or were there any changes along the way in order to reach this? (Reason I ask is that the 'full member' rank title to me always looks a bit out of place and trange in comparison to all of the other rank titles)?

Well, the forum software Bitcointalk currently uses: Simple Machines comes with prebuilt memberships:

Newbie
Jr. Member
Member
Full Member
Sr. Member
Hero Member


Legendary/Brand new were added on.

Actually "Full Member" Rank was in place when Theymos decided , that he need one more rank between Jr.Member and Full Member rank. So he created the "Member" Rank. Sounds weird but it is true.


Edit:

Maybe I'll add a new group between Jr. Member and Full member. What should it be called?

Maybe just... 'Member'?
