Pardon my ignorance of NMC. Where do I get a NMC wallet?
you need to download namecoind, start it, and get some address.
this one is pretty informative

I don't know what platform you are using, so you google from there Smiley namecoind has a separate wallet from bitcoind. Make sure to not confuse BTC address with NMC, or you will lose your money.

hint: nmc address will always start with N or M.

and of course check this:

I am using guiminer on win7 so I don't think I can use Namecoin at the moment. I created some NMC addresses at bitparking for now and set the payout threshold on slush high. I don't like using online wallets like this, but until I can figure out how to run namecoind.exe on win7, this should suffice.

So am I use the one that says "windows by twobits".  It works fine.
