Thanks for the reply. Its an interesting situation. I emailed the blogger and explained the issue to them and asked if they would be willing to help me out by removing the post.
I'm not sure if the intent was to help me or mess with me, but they changed the name in the article from the short hand version to the full version of the first name.
Now the title of the article is referenced on the shorthand version of my name, and the full name is referenced in the actual text. Now it effectively screws both of my names up, rather than leaving one safe...
Hey, I really do appreciate the advice, but its a bit of a dilemma. There is a very fine line on the internet between helping and hurting yourself sometimes.

I was seriously considering that, for all I know it would make the other page more popular as well. The internet is tricky sometimes.
