I made my account(s) off invite codes and have "just my last name" at gmail dot com as an address... it's one of my most prized possessions, to this day!

- Hrundi 6y agoI managed to snag my (very common) italian last name. I get a flood of messages every day. I both love and hate my account. I don't even speak italian!
- 12ian34 6y agodo you receive any interesting emails?
- jldl805 6y agoI get the same thing. My last name isn't that common though so I've messaged the culprits specifically (especially if they use their phone number when signing up for whatever it is) to ask them to please stop using it. Someone will have the idea and sign up for 5-6 things all in one burst, which usually inspires my outreach.

- dopeboy 6y agoHanging out in IRC channels in early 2000s was how I wasted my teenage years. But I did get a gmail invite out of it leading to my primary email address to this day: arithmetic@gmail.com
- gautamsomani 6y agoThats awesome man.
- macNchz 6y agoI also have <last name>@gmail.com. It’s not a super common last name, but common enough that I get emails almost daily from people accidentally omitting a first initial.
