Yes, it's only a bunch of zeros and ones (i.e. binary code written into a microchip), but still, data is data. If one day, in the distant future, that microchip is still intact, and encountered by future human civilizations, or even possibly, non-terrestrial sentient races, then at least, they know that a person with your name, once existed on the planet Earth. I find a sense of wonder, comfort, and even amusement at the thought, and I hope you feel the same way.
