Their choice of name is never accidental. When they choose the name of a famous person they want us to think of them in the same way we think of that celebrity, eg: Jonathan Yaniv is now Jessica Simpson. When they take the name of someone they know personally you can be sure there is a bit of an obsession with that person. It is like they are walking around in their skin and the person whose name they took feels violated. When they steal the name of a child that they know it is a red flag the size of Texas and no parent should feel flattered that a man has chosen to appropriate their child's name 'because it's so pretty'. At no time does one of these sick people ever ask their namesake for permission to impersonate them.

It seems Yaniv only started calling himself Simpson after suing Kari Simpson of parents rights group Culture Guard (who helped a journalist sued by Yaniv) earlier this year. He might (also) be trying to harass her.

I thought it was the name of his "girlfriend" who was actually somebody trolling him?
