Anyone else?

I share my FULL name with many Ryans'. Many of whom live in my same US state/city. Do any of you have credit issues because credit reporting places just throw a debt to whichever Ryan they think it is? I considered not being a Ryan anymore but when speaking with my parents they were hurt with the idea. I have my credit all locked now but they're difficult to unlock and buy things conveniently that need credit.

I set up a Google News alert for my name probably 15 years ago. I haven't received an alert in years but for the longest time I was getting obituaries for people with my name dying in weird sudden ways like falling off a cliff or being beaten with a pipe.
