We don't live in a perfect world where everything always goes our way but all I am saying is that I would do everything in my power to keep the same name. On a worse case type scenario regarding the switch to the .xxx domain, let's say for example, a webmaster was unable to register the same name....at least they would still have the
same content (assuming that it is
exclusive content) and that's what generates sales to any site. Of course, the name of a site can be important for various reasons but ulitimately, it's the content on the site that is getting the surfers to sign up.
For the webmaster that was unable to register the same site name, as soon as the surfers were to visit the new site, they would immediately realize that it was a different site from the content being displayed on it thus the name of the site would no longer be relevant to the old site. But hopefully, this is something that we will never have to deal with.
