Vedran, thank you for the interesting cultural and linguistic perspective.  In 
Spanish, "Como te llamas?" (familiar) "Como se llama?" (formal) literally 
translate as "What do you call yourself?" (want me to call you?).  (I believe 
the latter could also be translated as "What are you called?", which you note 
is slightly different.  I also know that addressing people by name is a more 
involved -- and dangerous-- subject in Japan than in America.

I think that David's rewrite is clear enough with the little change I suggested 
at the end, and have approved Joannah's PR with one little addition.  Even if 
not perfect, it is definitely better than the current text.
