You must be famous. ;) John,

I particularly enjoy seeing my name encapsulated in a language other than English or Dutch. If someone wants to find everything with my name attached to it, they are going to have to go through a lot of trouble.

I can't find any others by that name. Probably due to the unique spelling of my last name, which around here (Netherlands/Germany/Belgium) is usually written with a V.It does give you a warm and fuzzy feeling ;) I think I'm the only Maurice Fonk on this planet.

Your name is not so common, so you can hope to take the first spot with some motr optimization. I guess you are lucky.
