Why is it that people can reply to email from me, wherein my name is in the header AND the email itself, and still call me "Ronin"?

It's a tribute to your masterless samurai-fu!

I was going to say "it's wishful thinking," but I think we should definitely go with your answer.

Strangely, I occasionally get similar email, except they think my name is 'James' or something. I guess they look at the first couple of letters and extrapolate.

Oh, it's even better when you know they've read thousands of your emails, they have a Master's in English, they care about their writing, and they still get the vowel of the second syllable wrong. Whee.
