  No I don't see the two as being misleading or similar.  They are two distinct
different things.  Domain Names are congruence or potential congruence
of 2nd level designations within a TLD.  Domain Namespaces are the progressive
levels in a TLD name space from a Domain Name.  Pretty simple if you think
