Control-F3 brings up the Name dialog box, which is almost what you want.
By default it creates a new name, just as the name box does.

Don't use your real email address in a public forum. There are two methods
of defense. I use both.
1. "Munge" your email address by adding extra characters to it. That's
what I did.
2. Use a "throwaway" email address. Use an email address until it starts
getting spam, then switch to a new one.

You should never give out your main email address to a public forum.
Spammers will certainly find it.

F5 is the greatest (work around) shortcut key to go to name box in Excel so far.
