We examine the effect of finite size of population on the distribution of family names. As the result we observe that the power-law behavior of size-frequency distribution in Reed--Hughes ([15]) model collapses to show the convex shape on the logarithmic graph. We can approximately calculate the average distribution of size-frequency distribution of family names obtained by the similar method for Ewens sampling formula.
