This sounds like some of the "LISTSERV(R) attacks" that occur occasionally

where someone tries to subscribe a whole bunch of people to as
many lists as possible.  When I've seen this before the "first name" and
"last name" were always the same and the same as the account, i.e.

[log in to unmask] catht catht

I would definitely delete all requests that come in with this format;
chances are quite good they are bogus, IMHO.  My suggestion is to require
real names on the list and delete anything that is obviously bogus such
as the example you gave and the one I gave.
