In addition to Ron’s suggestion, the module-authors mailing list (copied on this email) is a better place to ask for advice like this.

And while I’m here, better then a Perlgram toplevel namespace, you could go with a toplevel of Telegram::BotKit, or something like that, with your distribution then being called Telegram-BotKit (note that the distribution name needs to match the top-level module name). Then all modules in your distribution would be inside the Telegram::BotKit::* namespace.

Cheers,
Neil
