It's true that people can get confused between posters with similar posting names. I know people sometimes get me confused with TamaraJ. But when I signed up I don't think I'd seen any posts by TamaraJ, or I wouldn't have chosen Tamar.
And now that I've been around for a few months I've grown attached to the name Tamar and I don't really want to change it (sorry, TamaraJ!).
Maybe it's something that the people who watch the Newbies board can advise on when people first sign up? I suspect the software can't pick up on such things (though I know nothing about software).
