I empathize with this so hard. I have an early first-initial-last-name Gmail account as well. It's both very generic in the United States, and when combined, a common first name in Brazil. It's nearly unusable at this point, but I've had it since 2004 and it'd be very difficult to migrate away from it. I have a filter to delete any email from a .br domain, but just the amount of Brazilian spam that makes it through is torrential.
