Exactly what I did. I set up up a very complicated name as the main name, which I have no intention of ever using. I then set up a number of subsidiary names, one for close friends and relatives, one for regular email shopping, one for one-off email shopping and a number of junk ones. If any become "contaminated", it will be ruthlessly binned. Even with the subsidiary names, I'd recommend not using the "Fred159" type of name; they obviously start with Fred1 and continue to Fred999999, as I quickly found out. Use something like Fred159xy.
