I haven't done what you are talking about.  I did have the domain califmichele.com at one time.  I was going by "Michele in California" online at the time and my email was califmichele (@ something).  I wanted the domain name "michelesworld" but it wasn't available.  It was a personal site of just stuff I was interested in, with no particular focus.<p>Trying to tell people the domain name verbally was a huge problem.  My name is spelled with one L and many people automatically spell it with two.  They also tended to think I meant Kalif or Caliph rather than short-hand for California.  (As an aside:  This was making me increasingly concerned that the site would attract the wrong kind of attention for the wrong reasons.)<p>I eventually left California and broke the site up into several sites, each with a specific topic focus.  When I did so, I worked hard to find natural language domains that are easily conveyed verbally without having to spell them or add verbal explanations/provisos.
