Q: How can I make my Java package name unique?

Answer: By convention, the first part of the package name is the Internet domain name of the class creator, reversed.

Since the Internet domain names are unigue you should follow this agreement. Do not use the package name that already match some domain name that you are not owner of. Find free name and register it. You can find cheap registration now on Internet, ~$10/year!
