I was really saddened by the person who said she worried about giving
her real last name out...My first name is mono-syllabic and I've never
felt it was STURDY enough to convey who I am, so I usually introduce
myself with my full name, sometimes almost inappropriately.  Of course,
I don't worry a whole lot about giving out my phone number either (I'm
not home that much, and I'm selectively deaf and will ignore the phone 
if I'm working on something and don't want to be interupted)...I also
haven't been asked for my phone number lately--partly most of the people
I've met lately have been in fairly organized situations where I'm sure 
to see them again in the next week or so anyhow...
