Well, there are other people out there using my pseud, or variations on it, but of course that's my own fault for using a character name from such a well-known source. In my defence, when I decided to use Luthien it was only meant to be an in-joke between a small group of RL friends.
But, well, occasionally I do run into other fannish types using 'Luthien' online, and while it does niggle a bit, the only thing I can really do is make the name mine in the circles I hang out in. Posting stuff and building your profile a bit might help if she's not going to acknowledge you. As other people have said, you have the advantage of having the LJ name, so if she's wanting to post stuff on LJ you have the big advantage there.
Hmmn, that wasn't really very useful advice, was it? *g* Anyway, my sympathies. It's an annoying situation to be in.
