Re: Name Game

I get confused for JJ Goldberg (from the Forward) which isn’t surprising since my legal name is Jonah Jacob Goldberg. And whenever Jeffrey Goldberg is on C-Span I get email intended for him. But I get far more email intended for Daniel Jonah Goldhagen, author of Hitler’s Willing Executioners. Every month or so someone writes me to say I’m such a hypocrite for having written X in a column but Y in that book. Unfortunately, Goldhagen’s royalty checks have never turned up in my mailbox.
