When I post a Wordle to the Gallery, I use my username. I was going
through my gallery and saw a Wordle I did not make...well, at least I
did not recall making it. I clicked on it and it opened and I saw it
was done by another person. The person was sending me a complimentary
message that (s)he like a specific Wordle I made.

Should we be concerned about this? What if the person was not nice
and made a pornographic Wordle and named it using another's user name?
We can not remove Wordles, even those that we have made. This could be
embarrassing if you send a link to your Wordle Gallery to your
friends.

Can we make sure that only the holder of a username be used by that
user?

If someone would like to compliment our work they can certainly send a
message via the forum.

Am I just being silly??

I don't think you're being silly at all. I am new to this and would
love to use it with students, but it seems like the only way to be
safe is to keep it out of the gallery. As I'm reading through the
posts (I'm trying to see if you can save a project to finish at a
later time), it seems like the enthusiasts want more from this program
than its original intent. Maybe we need to ask IBM to give Jonathan
some time to develop Wordle 2.0 ;->
