I don't think you could/can catch whoever did it or even figure out who it was with any certainty and speculating would just make me more upset. If your name is "common" and known, it could have been a lucky guess on your email or a random pick, etc. I wouldn't take it personally, even if you think it was old "friends" trying to get at you; I wouldn't let it get at me. It's online, not real world, and I take some comfort in that. No one knows it was "you" other than perhaps whoever did it and yourself. Most comforting to me is that no one who knows you and cares about you thinks the site was yours/made by you! Hang on to that real fact. I would just think of it as if someone who didn't like you in the real world said to you, "Your mother wears combat boots!" She doesn't (an assumption on my part :-) so it's more or less a meaningless thing. It's not a credit card or anything "important" -- isn't really about "you" at all.
