I can only imagine, mine is a pretty popular name as well, I see quite a few entries where I get mail obviously to other people... It gets kind of annoying to say the least... Examples like, someone put me on their Farm Equipment account, so I was getting receipts and marketing... Also got on someone's college application, so funding notifications etc. I have sometimes made an effort to contact the org or person in question... I did manage to change someone's password for a dating site, and changed their profile to "I don't know how email works" etc. When I couldn't reach the person.

Heh- I get quite a lot with content like: "Hi - Grandma here - so nice to see to see you last week and glad your studies are going well. I hope you liked the sweater I sent over. Lots of love." Still not sure if they're real and granny assumes @gmail.com must be the right email for her grandson's name or it's some sneaky phish. I get a lot of personal info too like paystubs and legal docs for other people with my first name. I usually reply with "you have the wrong person - you might want to check" and receive a surprising amount of replies like "how dare you read private email - delete immediately or we will take legal action... " Oh well.
