title: What is the meaning of the logger name in .NET common logging?
body: <p>I'm using the <a href="http://netcommon.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">.NET common logging infrastructure V2.0</a>. I'm getting an ILog object like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger("myLogName");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I don't understand the meaning and effect of the log name. <strong>Does it matter if I use the same name all over the process</strong>, or can i just use <code>LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger()</code> for every class (yes, I know comes with a performance penalty).</p>
  
  <p>p.s:
  I will probably use log4net &amp; ConsoleOutLogger.</p>
