Changing domain name

Before I chose my domain name I researched the web to make sure someone hasn't already taken it. Now that I have a few post on my site I decided to see how things looked from a phone. I typed in 'insanemama' and to my dismay someone else has the same name. Not sure why I couldn't find anything earlier when I searched.

What are my options?
Can I cancel that domain name and make a new one? I went through namecheap

I would like any advice.

Sorry about that. It is..... insanemama.com. If you type in insanamama without .com you will see someone has that same name on weebly domain. Seems she started hers in Jan 2015 and it didn't pull up when I was coming up with my name.

OK I saw what you mean. You guys are targeting 2 different audiences and in my search you came up first. I did see her Twitter page and I can see some confusion which might bother you.
If you want to change names I would first research again and look at social media as well once you think you have a new name. I had a siterubix name but when I went to get my own domain it was taken. You own insanemama.com and will for a year. I believe you will have to buy a new domain name. You can un-publish your present site and launch a new one.
Sorry but you need to decide what you want to do.

Thank you. After chewing on it over the wknd I've decided to leave it. Thanks again for the feedback

Hi Worthygirl, What is your current website name? It's hard to answer without more info.

Okay, what is your current website's domain name? I don't see it on your WA profile.
