My name is not Paolo Fassino neither in America nor in Italy

PROBLEM OF TRANSLATION OF MY SURNAME:

My name is Paolo Fassin I was born in Italy and so it is written on ITCH.IO; however, if the Italian language is set on the browser from which you access my web space on ITCH.IO, my surname is translated into Fassino; therefore it turns out that everything I published on ITCH.IO was done by Paolo Fassino and not by me.

It's a very serious problem.

I don't know what it depends on. Could anyone help me?

I'm pretty sure translations don't work that way.

Thanks, but I don't know why this happens. In the city where I live, Turin, there is a person, an Italian of Italian nationality, like me, registered, like me, on LinkedIn who, perhaps, has falsified his name, in order to be able to claim to be me; his name is Paolo Fassino.

My surname is of French Belgian origin and is very rare; according to extensive research I've done, at the registry office and on US search engines, there are about 10 people in the whole world who are truly named Fassin and are not my relatives, but descend from the same family tree. Fassino is a common Italian surname and Paolo Fassino could be a hacker. Does he call himself that and/or is he really called that? However, even on ITCH.IO, my last name is often not recognized, underlined in red. If I search from the app and write Paolo Fassin (search by author) I only find the first version of Bacci e gli anatroccoli (16 Bit). Only if I write does Fassin find all my published products. What do you think ?

You can verify my identity through the registry office of Genoa, the city where I was born, confirming that I exist, my name is Paolo Fassin and I have lived in Turin for about 12 years and is my profile https:paolo-fassin.itch.io authentic and it was registered by me ?

Thank you.

A lot of surnames aren't in spellchecking dictionaries. That has nothing to do with itch.io or user interface translation. And nobody's questioning who you are. Most of us use pseudonyms. What is this even about?

What?

Are you talking about the language setting in itch or about a language translation feature in the browser?   Neither would translate a username. Furthermore, "fassin" translates to ... "fassin". 

 therefore it turns out that everything I published on ITCH.IO was done by Paolo Fassino and not by me.

The only mention of fassino in association with itch comes from your post here. Your username is part of the url. 

You sure you have no bogus addons in your browser? Did you check on a different device, like from your phone? And with different browsers.
