I think this is overthinking it a bit? If you're citing a blog post and it's marked up properly with h-entry and an h-card for the author, use the name from that specific h-card since that's what the publisher has publicly associated with that post

[tantek], likely that "recent PR not quite getting the format right" was likely mine, but I had no indication that there was a problem or what I got wrong...and there is a PR for moving capjamesg's report to the correct location.
