Generally, the idea is that someone would need to know the blog's URL to find it in the first place, which is where they will request access. By that point, you should probably know them.

If you don't know them, which can happen from time to time, I recommend just ignoring them. If they truly know you, they'll find some other way to get in touch.

But that doesn't explain the other requests (like the guy from India).

The requests are coming from (I suppose) the contact form - but they would have to have access to the blog to fill it out, so I'm confused.

The message comes through the service:

If your blog is private then where are these requests coming from and how are they reaching you?

While it’s true that we can change our “display name” or “nickname”, that name will appear on all blogs registered under the same username account. We can only link our username to a single “primary blog” and we can only have one gravatar per username/display name.

If you plan from the outset to have blogs that you do not want to be associated, you must be logged out of wordpress.com when you register an additional username account with a different email address.Then you can log in under each username account and register blogs separately under each username so they aren’t associated and you can have a different gravatar for each username.

The Authors Widget shows display names (nicknames) and not usernames, so if you customize your nickname then it will show your full name.

You can do that in your profile at https://girlmatters2.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=grofiles-editor .
