It must have been one of the thousands sign up and never come back. Those accounts are prunned every now and then: 0 posts and no activity for some 6 or more months. The first prune was in Autumn 2002: about 30% of the accounts were deleted.

So, there wasn't a Lemur in the database when the namechange was requested.
