Without WHOIS privacy hiding your identity, your website could be linked to that comment by your name. Some people may even go out of their way to dig up every bit of information on you as a person because they simply disagree with you on a blog post.
If you want personal data to be removed from the whois, you should file a complaint with the data controller: the registry. Contact details may be found on the registry's websites. An easier way of removing personal data is using our Whois Privacy Protection services, if it's available for that specific extension.
Anyone can look there to see who owns the domain and contact the domain owner if necessary. Private Domain Registration is also called WHOIS Masking or contact privacy.
Most of these companies will give out your hidden info at the first request. At least enom does so, I've read somewhere they give out info to any request that mentions the word "infringement". I've also heard there are sites that watch and gather whois updates, inclusive the very first registration data before whois privacy has been activated. They sell then this info to whoever pays.
If you want privacy use fake info. But then you are traceable via payment operations.
So the answer to your question, in the long run that will not be possible.
