Identity–Food For thought

GGC has a great and thought provoking post about online identity in the blogsphere–especially the mommy blogsphere.  It has given me great pause for thought and consideration of my own online moniker.  Mine is not original.  I know there is a dalai mama on blogspot and there is another dalai mama who posts on a parenting site.  I admit that when I purchased and decided on thedalaimama moniker, I didn’t do much due diligence in my searching to see if there were others out there.  When I did, I decided that we were really in differnt realms of the blogsphere.  But now, I wonder.  How important is it?  I know that I have a base readership and I don’t know that I get a lot of traffic meant for the other women who share my moniker.  But…that keeps coming back to me.  GGC’s words and the words of her commenters resonate with me. 

 What are your thoughts?  Have I violated the intellectual property of the other dalai mama’s?
