Abstract
Methods and systems for managing distributed group identity may involve exchanging, at a node in a group, node identifiers with another node in the group, sorting the node identifiers, selecting an identifier from the sorted identifier, proposing the selected identifier as a persistent group name, setting the persistent group name based on the proposed identifier, setting a user administered name based on the proposed identifier, determining that the user administered name is consistent across the group, and updating the user administered name to resolve the inconsistency. The persistent group name is common across the group.
