Olivia,
In the case of a stalker, a name change will do absolutely nothing. Anyone can change their name but it takes time to build a new persona. I'm not talking about changing your name to get away from bad reviews but building a new persona to get away from a stalker client/an abusive boyfriend..etc. When a client shows up at your family's Christmas party and tries to out you, you'd wouldn't be just changing your name. I went through a whole makeover. One thing about reviews is they will always follow. If your service sucks people will put two and two together. However, I had awesome reviews onTER (my goldmine) and asked to be delisted after that christmas party. It was painful. I regretted it until I joined eccie.

If someone is obsessed enough to show up at a family Christmas party, I would think he's obsessed enough to keep searching. Sorry that happened to you.
I have friends that have 10 personas and you know what? I don't knock them. I don't have the time to be 10 people. I rather just be the best me I can be and provide top notch service. I hate the fact that people associate changing your name/persona as trying to get away from a bad reviews (even when you never had a bad review).
I emailed all my clients after that little episode Wayward and they were more than supportive. You were right.
Big difference betwen changing your name and having a new persona. A lot of escorts have two identical websites, different names, same rates.. and it's like why? Ugh!

I know women that want to get into the same product line, for lack of a better word, but are afraid it will scare off her more vanilla clientele. I can see why for some women it would take a whole different persona for a perceived whole different product line. Maybe they play more extreme that me. But for me, it's not worth it.
