Rh : Rh antigens are present in every blood. You would need to be more specific. Also, they blood type (a, b, ab, 0) is not connected/related to the rh + or rh - types; they are inherited independently.

Multiple Rh types: The usual Rh type people talk about is D positive or D negative. Either one is normal. There are other Rh antigens also, e.g. C, c, E, e etc. These are important for blood transfusion and occasionally in pregnancy. But any type is normal.
