David,

Even variations on a single-token name can be quite plentiful. You perhaps know that some maladroit folks tend to spell your name with a single 'l' (okay, okay, mea culpa). One could think 'Dorfman' is not particularly fruitful (compare it to this (real) surname: Katsenelenbaumbluemanstein); however, I have seen such variations as

Dorsman Dortmund Dorkman Doorman Dormant Doifmint Torment Tofman Toifman

and more aberrations one would never even think of.

At least, the placement of the comma here is not as critical as in the ukase saying "Execute not pardon" <g>.
