Does anyone ever see my email address?
-
Does anyone ever see my email address when they look at or contact my blog? Or when I contact theirs?
I don’t want people connecting my name to my blog- but I’ve noticed sometimes when I leave a comment on someone else’s blog, my email shows up- and it (stupidly) includes my name.
thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Yes indeed when you comment on blogs your email address is available to others. If that’s not what you want then get a throwaway email address and chnage your registered email address as follows.
You have two separate email address settings at WordPress.com. Have you entered two different email addresses at these locations (see below) or have you entered the same one at both locations?
Blog notifications for the admin (like comment moderation, Likes, new subscriptions, etc) are sent to the email address at Settings -> General in the Dashboard.
Personal notifications (like comments on your post, subscription emails, and upgrade renewals) are sent to the email address at Users -> Personal Settings in the Dashboard.

Yes indeed your username or your display name (nickname) will appear on comments. See here please > http://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/#change-display-name-nickname

I have 2 email addresses because I used one for an old blog that I deleted- not sure how to get rid of that either
