>>Just recently reconnected with an old friend in Croatia, and she says she knows a guy in Australia named exactly the same as I, who is a complete ustasha, i.e. a total and over-the-board Croatian ultranationalist. When she's in the mood, she just annoys him by telling him that there's a Serb of the same name :). Actually, now that I've done my (roughly annual) autogoogling, I have at least two more of namesakes, plus that blabbermouth Dragoljub or Dragutin or Dragiša in Paris who is some sort of Serb nationalist, but instead of using his name (which is actually more traditional, so should be more properly Serbian) insists on signing his drivel as Dragan. Anything that gets published under my name in Paris, and is linguistics or politics, is not me, it's him, I have nothing to do with that guy, and will not pay his debts.

No, for several reasons. First, I'd much prefer not to be mistaken for either of these two; and if there's any money in such a mistake, no thanks - there can't be enough of it there to overcome the disgust ;).
