This is something I'm sort of worried about. I've generally kept my casual nickname separate from my real name. If I'm doing something professional or academic, I'll use my real name, otherwise I'll use a pseudonym, and I work to keep them separate. I've been thinking about starting a programming blog with my real name just so people have something to find when they Google for me. Of course, it would help if I had some public results to point to with my name on them...
