I also have a short common word for my email address. I don't often get signups for it, but there's always one service with the same name that I get registration emails for. On one occasion though, a user from Tumblr had set their account name to my email. I think I forgot about it for a year, until the system emailed me about account inactivity. Upon talking to their support team about the issue, they told me just to reset the password and deactivate the account. Feels weird closing an account that I don't own and the owner has no access to.
