This is the advantage of having a unique name. There only ever have been, to my
knowledge, three people in the history of the world with my name. One is my
grandfather (long deceased), and another is a first cousin who keeps a fairly
low internet profile. ;-)

Maybe, in the future, search-engine-savvy parents will deliberately misspell
their child's name in order to make them findable in a search engine. Or
perhaps they will give them a name that makes them meld in (the name of a
mid-rank sports star or something like that-- chances are the sports star
will be forgotten by the time the kid gets to 10 or so, except by the net).
