Ugh same. My first name is very common, last name moderately uncommon. I've gotten loads of stuff. Various quotes and invoices (vet, mechanic, window installation), invitations to child care groups, family gathering invitations (that one I think was the person writing the email address, not the person with my name).

Most of the time I just immediately unsubscribe or block or whatever and move on, but there's some (like the child care group) I had to reach out to because that could be potentially dangerous.

Get your own email right, people! It shouldn't be my responsibility to manage your email. Some of that shit includes your home address too.
