Hi,
Do not know what your firstname and lastname is btw :)
The code in Members.pm contains two routines for generating the userid. 
Generate_Userid generates the suggested userid and Check_Userid does actually
check if that userid is not in the database.

I tried to reproduce your problem, but in my case with the same firstname and
lastname a userid was generated that was followed by a digit 1. So:
firstname.lastname1

I am curious if your problem somehow has to do with special characters or so.
Could you give me the exact firstname and lastname to reproduce this error
please? Thanks.
