Meanwhile, friend of mine's last name was Li, and IDs were first initial + last name + #

Her number had three digits.

I'm guessing it's the birthday that really messed the system up though?

Very common last name for Chinese and places like universities usually don't ever re-issue a username. So the "first-initial + last name + number" approach can get into triple digits easily.
