what's in a name?

I signed in to myLot late today. I had to fix a problem I encountered in my website earlier and it is a major priority. I have a blog site named "breathingSpace". (but that was yesterday until I received a comment from one of its visitors) I found out that he has a website registered as "Breathing Space" and it is entirely different from mine. I can dispute that, mine is totally different from his because... mine is called "breathingSpace" and his is called "Breathing Space"... in terms of the style, how it was written and spelled out. I can get away with it. But then, I don't want to make a big fuzz about it. So I immediately wrote him an e-mail apologizing (despite the fact that I had no idea in the first place and it was actually an honest mistake, you think?) Anyway, I just don't want to think the legality of the situation. So I apologized and immediately changed the name of my blog site "breathingSpace" to "myREFUGE". You see, I thought about the name "breathingSpace" because I felt it is the perfect place to breathe out my nagging thoughts. And I carried that name for less than 2 years now. But, I don't have I choice, I changed it and used my former username "my Refuge" instead. Did I do the right thing here?
