Having been able to confirm this is your name i took to discussing this with a couple of other members of the Account Creation team. As your comment when requesting this account makes use of the lowercase "i" and the upper case "S" three of us have agreed that this makes the user names different enough and that in your circumstance "User:iSlutsky" falls under the real name section of the user name policy. Accordingly i have created an account for you.
 * Your user name

I have added the lowercase to your talk page for you. In order to have the lowercase "i" you would need to go to Special:Preferences and paste the following into the signature field. Also check the box to "treat signature as wikitext". This will give you a signature in the default style but with a lowercase "i".

I would strongly suggest leaving this note here on your talk page in case an admin looks to block your account because of your user name.
