This is a great idea for anyone who has an uncommon name, but there is no way it'd work for me. For example, https://github.com/DanielMurphy is not me. Same problem on every other site.
As for searching, 'yebblies' is a much better way to find me online than 'Daniel Murphy'. Try it, you'll see what I mean.
