If you set your email name to something different from your bug tracker name and send an email to bugs.python.org, the bug report created will contain the email name. The bug report created is uncloseable and only the bug tracker admins can close it. The bug tracker should get the name by searching for the email address in the user database not by the email name.
For example, issue 13661 .
