I veto "JMatt" in the strongest terms.  When I worked as an
underling in a video store, one of the assistant managers called
me "JMatt" (pronounced [Zm&t]).  I didn't like him very much, and
consequently I came to dislike the name.  :-)

You can be "Matt33", or "Young Matt", or whatever you choose to
call yourself.  I prefer to stick with just plain "Matt".  That's
unambiguous enough, isn't it?  And anyhow, it doesn't really
matter how we sign our emails, since, for purposes of quoting, we
are distinguished by our user names--"J Matthew Pearson" in my
case, and "SuomenkieliMaa" in your case.  That's the only place
where real confusion could occur, I think.

Matt.
