advice for iFamily set-up

as iMom - i oversee downloads/ purchases/ syncs for :

kid1 iPod,

kid2 iPad,

my iPhone/iPad/iMac & our iPic files via 1 apple email as we share music, games downloads...

 

i am looking for a way for myself, kid1, kid 2 have the ability to iConnect w/ each other when we're apart?

when iMessaging we have the same name so it gets confusing and facetime will not work from me: out-of-town iPad -> to family via iMac, or iPods,Pads.

what is the best set up for keeping our 1 family account AND be able to contact each other when apart?  i'm thinking each have an account, but then would we be able to share, w/o internet connection.  can't

 

thanks for reading my confusing iPain... any direction would be put to use.
