When Ad Targeting software shoots wrong

I was on classmates.com today and saw that despite that my profile clearly says I'm a male, the ad server is not sent such knowledge to determine my sex. Instead, they use my name, which comes up as a girl.

 

Once I got tampons in the mail because of my name.

 

Let me make this clear: the name Kristian is of Nordic origin. That makes it an uber-awesome tough guy name.
