Choosing a website name

    For now, I have my site on blogger.....but in doing a google search or from other search engines, there are multiple sites with the same name. I have two concerns:

    1)Once my site gets big enough, will I get in trouble for using the same name?

    2) Should I change the name now before its gets lots of traffic and make it more unique?

    Thanks

    (the site in my signature is NOT what I am talking about)

    1) if it's trademarked, yes...

    2) Yes, try to find a name you've created (or is still available - less likely) and make sure it's a .com. Otherwise, the person who owns the .com is forever going to paint you in the corner.
