Most likely it's because the script being used to submit this auto-included the pages title, which includes his name.

Considering that the official HN submit script† does this, it's an honest mistake.

Not at all. The post was published by AddThis and I didn't realize the issue. I am glad it was highlighted so I could fix it sooner than later. Thanks.
