Do you like your username?
Do you like your username? Do you want to change it to something else? What makes you so attached to it?
To those who have changed before: Do you miss your previous one? What do you like about your current username that differs from older ones? Has it changed you and helped you grow as a person? I don't miss mine. I'm not into visual kei anymore (except for a few bands because they are still my heroes). I like pikadots because for once, it's not about visual kei. It's just about me wanting to be myself, you know? I also like this one because it's not focused on something I'm currently obsessed with. There's a good chance I'll keep it for a little longer, but we'll just have to see. |
I love my current username. It is what will eventually be my real name and a symbol of how I can express myself freely on the Internet. For this reason, all of my other usernames pale in comparison to this one—they were either inferior due to an inclusion of extraneous characters (like .) or just spur-of-the-moment choices that meant little to me.

I hope you do change your name to the best Disney princess. Yeah I enjoy my username. Starálfur is actually a song by Sigur Rós, it's pretty neat because it has a palindrome in it via the strings. Also it has that sort of Germanic mysticism to it I think (it helps that Icelandic is arguably one of the most unchanged languages in Europe). |
Yeah, I'm happy with my username. I was quite lucky to get it, Meloetta is one of my favourite Pokemon, and I doubt I'll change it again, although I might think of it from time to time. I wouldn't say I was hugely attached to it, but then, maybe I am - I'd have to get it changed and have someone else take it to find out, and I'm not prepared to experiment for the sake of curiosity, haha.
The only complaint I have is that it isn't really as unique or original as my old one; it doesn't have much creativity. I mean, Pokemon forum, Pokemon username. Way to fit the theme. Derp. Just using a Pokemon name as a username doesn't really say much about me as a person, so I suppose it doesn't leave much of an impression. But then, I'm fairly secretive anyway, and if people really want to get to know me that badly, there are better ways of doing it than looking at my username, and really it's a very small, first-impressions type of indicator anyway; my posts speak for themselves. So...eh. |
Yes. I chose it myself 8)
|
It's a username I've sported in the past, so why not? 8)
|
Yeah its not bad, think I would have rathered I was just Raichu but ninjas are cool.
|
I guess my username isn't too bad. It's not the most creative names ever. I like Team Magma and The Flash so I tried to put the two together as best as I can. I couldn't really think of a way to add Loki in there
Most of the usernames I've used in the past always had "Raticate" in the name. (Yes, Raticate is my favorite pokemon. Yes go ahead and laugh.) :t020: |
I'm very happy with my username! When I originally joined here "Psychic" had been taken, so I had used a longer username that hardly rolls off the tongue. I've been going by Psychic since 2004, so it was nice when I was able to get it changed here. I have no plans to change it. :)
~Psychic |
It's okay I guess better tht some of my old ones
|
No, I specifically requested a username that I absolutely despise, I was getting sick of having a username I liked.

Fire is hawt. It was fun being Pikachu for a while, but it wasn't as me as other names I've had. I think it's fun to change my username up once in a while since it's just something I am on PC - it's not an online identity I user elsewhere so I don't really need to be unique and easily recognizable. Rather the other way around haha. If I really enjoy being Fire, I might stick with it. Else, I can probably go back to my beloved adventure in July <3 |
yeah i made it years ago and it's just stuck... somehow it is weirdly apart of me
|
I waited a long time to be Castform and I don't really want to ever change again. I love this username and it's by far the most fitting identity for me.
|
I like my current one, but I've thought about changing it. I just don't know what to change it to. Talon is one of my favorite champions in League of Legends, and League is about all I do with my life at this point so yeah.
|
I love my username. It fits me well, as people actually associates Ash with me (in a good way!) and I don't have any intentions on changing it. Maybe in the far future, but I really don't see it happening come July or even in 2017, to be honest.
|
This name is like my brand, so I will never change it for the forseeable future. At least it's something that looks like was made by myself, as opposed to a name with random numbers thrown onto it.
|
yeah sure. i don't really identify with any name though, they're all awkward to be called. that would be part of why i chose this username in particular, it's nothing specific and yet it suits absolutely everything. that's how i feel all the time anyway-- changing, unified.. a not-very-predictable kinda person.

Grizz is a nickname I've had since I was in the 8th grade. I used to hate it but it's grown on me so much that this is the screen name I use for 95% of my accounts.
|
No, I hate it lol. I've tried to change it twice already but have been denied both times, so whatever. :\
Just gives me more time to come up with one I like, I guess, but this is my original username from when this account was created in 2007, so it would have been nice to change it when it was offered this month lol. |

I like usernames that are short and sweet, so I'll just have to come up with something else. |

I love my username.

I love my current username a lot. It reminds me to be positive and stay happy which I'm not good at irl, especially the latter part.
|
Nope, I've kept my username all these years because I despise it.
|
I absolutely love my Username.
|
Yes I like my username. I've had it since... I don't know. 9th grade I guess?

I adore this username! I changed to it a few years ago and since I've started wearing it I feel like myself. It's really one name I consider to be closest to any that I identify with. I actually despise my real life name and wish to change it....probably will eventually change my name to Melody. :3
|
Yes, I really like my username! It's also my PSN name, I've had it for about a year now. However, if acatfrommars is too long you can just call me Bruce. My first name on here was Bruce Banner becoz the Hulk is cool.
|
Well, I like it right now, but who knows if I'll like it in July. I'm fickle.
|
I like mine, because it's my real name. Also, Team Rocket win.
My original username (9 years ago!) was icaica...which was supposed to be the last part of Jessica? Eh. |
I really like my username! i have grown attached to it more and more as well! While I dislike change, I may want to change it to another sheepy name sometime in the far future.
|
I like my username, which is why I've had it since 2008. And call myself by it in real life.
I've had thoughts of changing it, though, to some name from something that I actually still like. (I'm not much of a fan of DragonLance anymore.) But I haven't run across a name that really fits me yet (except maybe Taleswapper), so I'll keep this name for a while longer. And it does still fit me in some ways, for those of you who know who the Astinus from DragonLance is. Quote:

But anyway, I love my username. No other name is as 'me' as this one so I'm never changing anytime soon. Though I've used different names on other forums in the past and was considering trying them out for a while but they wouldn't last more than a day. xD |
I like mine a lot! I've grown quite attached to it and it's sorta become my "identity" here, so to speak. It actually took a bit to grow on me though because I've always had my usual set of usernames that I use across forums and accounts and such, but Sopheria was a brand new one for me when I came up with it on PC. Now I even use it in places outside of PC :P
Also, it's a shout-out to a very underrated game in a very underrated series, so I love giving it props with my username ^^ |
Sure do! Otherwise, it wouldn't be my username. :p
|
To be honest? Yeah.
i had to |
I like my username, and I'm very happy to have it. In terms of changing it, I may change it one day to a certain cute nickname that some of my friends have been calling me. As for what makes me attached to it is that Pancham is one of 4 Pokemon that is my favorite, that's really about all.
|
I enjoyed my current username as Starry Windy, and attached to it that I'm not changing my username anymore, even though I was considering to change into Starlight Windy at some point.
Originally I wanted to change into Heartouch once, because I like the idea of 'touching heart' as part of the username. Sadly, the name change comes with unfortunate timing (blame the viruses/malwares for that) and some misinterpretations, though, that I decided to roll it back to Starry Windy again. |
I do love this username ♥
but i already requested a new username which has a few detail of my real name. |

|
Yes, otherwise I'd choose another one xD

I -love- that name and never going to change it. Very rarely ever see anyone with it, some people do use it though on more popular websites like Twitch, Twitter, etc. so I've been adding numbers when the name was taken, the same ones every time. They look like random numbers but they actually hold meaning to me so there's that. |
I just changed mine. I like it. It's different for me.
|
Now I'm lovin' it ♥
|
This is pretty much my old standby and I'm glad to have it back since it's been quit a while since I've had it. I'll probably keep it at least until next year.
|
I love it! I don't think I'll be changing it anytime soon because I value it.
|
Well, I'll be back as Meganium next time...right now I kinda miss being Minerva for a while.
|
I'm settled with this username. I've had several changes over the past couple of years, but after having this name for approximately a year now I haven't even had the real urge to change it.
|
Yeah, not gonna change this one.
|
I like mine. It's much better than my previous one, so it's staying.
|
I love this username, though it's not one I use anywhere outside of PC. It wasn't exactly as easy as a name change to get these four letters in this specific arrangement due to various circumstances, so I treasure it all the more. I used to be a serial name changer-- but I've been Loki for many years now, and plan to stick with it.
(Though I do feel sorry for all the Marvel Loki fans that I'm hogging this username when it's not even based off of him or the Norse God he's associated with. LOL I chose Loki purely for the Fairy Tail character-- though Tom Hiddleston makes for a very fine Loki of Asgard.) |
I hated my old one. No idea where "SwirlyBirds" came from, I think I picked it in 2013 and then left basically immediately. I'm pretty happy with my new one, and I'm really surprised it was free.
|
I've had my username for around 16 years now so It's okay. I neither like nor dislike it and am feeling neutral about it.
|
I like my current username. It's a name I use in the Final Fantasy 1 remake on GBA (Where I discovered it), an indie MMORPG I played since I was in high school, and Fantasy Life (My favorite RPG on 3DS)!
My old username (GD GaminTank) just didn't work and it seemed like it just me trying to attatch my YouTube username to everything, which is not why I made an account here. I'm glad I was able to change it. |
Mine is alright. Truth be told: I fancied with another username, but it was unobtainable to me and since I couldn't come up with an alternative, I'm going to have this one for a couple more months, if not longer.
|
I'm not too sure if my name is good, maybe I should get a better username.
At least it has no numbers. |
My old username was part of an e-mail account that I've had for nearly 9 years. As for Thursday, I actually wanted Tuesday since it's my favorite day of the week but it was already used. Thursdays are nice though.
|
Of the various usernames I've come up with, I'm really loving "Reunilu". Most of my other usernames just don't feel right, but this one feels really me. I always wanted a name that was original, and I'm happy I found one.
|
I used to like it a lot back in the days. I still do. But it has become more of an identity thing than it being super cool to me or anything. I've stuck to this name for almost 5 years now and I have been using it everywhere I register myself on. I just can't imagine myself without it now, haha. Hence why I wouldn't go for a name change - I'm sort of scared that I won't be able to get it back haha.
|
I like mine now. Beforehand, I went with variations of 'Envy', which I still think is a great username for me. Never being happy with most anything I have or am. lol. However, the variation I had before had a special character, and it made it very hard to log in. =/
My new/current username is actually very neat and fits me. It doesn't seem that way, I know. People probably think it's just another generic musical username. It is a musical username, but it does not mean what most may think it does, it is an old musicology term for an ensemble of brass and woodwinds. Considering how much I love brass and woodwind instruments (and I own a ton, too!) it just seems kind of perfect for me. |
i've had so many usernames ever since i joined pc (i had so many accounts that i cant even remember most of them), but the ones i remember are just Laugh and Essentials, and now, Hannah. i like my current one because i like my name, though sometimes i kind of wish laugh because it sorta made me feel more unique. i dont have plans on changing back any time soon, though.
|
yes like this username it sounds cute when you say it the way i pronounce it lol |
Yes and No, I created it about 10 years ago when we had to choose a username for the then brand new computer system, and I, being the edgy cool kid that I was (maybe still am), wanted my favourite colour and favourite animal.
I do like it, and use it on forums as it's the only one I can remember. It does sound like an awful character out of a badly written fan fic but at least it's not XxXx___El3tr1cblu3wo1f____xXxx |
Yes its my irl name and I'm comfortable with using it, simple
|
I love my username. Ludger is such an important character to me...I'm not gonna get into that though, gushing isn't my thing, haha. But yeah. :)
|
If I didn't like it, then I wouldn't have kept it for nearly ten years.
Yes, I have been using the Arylett part of this name for that long. (Before that, I was Arylett Dawnsborough, but the Arylett part is the first name, so it's more important) Before that, I was changing my name left and right. Then I started using it on one of the first forums I've ever joined, became a semi well-known member, and it stuck. I now identify more as Arylett than my real name, because more people have called me that. (I don't have much interaction in real life) It is a name that has existed before I started using it; I made it up when I was 13 by combining the name of various shades of red plus A, the letter of my actual name. So that also makes it ripe for staying consistent, as my love of red is one of the few things that has never changed. It is something that defines me. So now, Arylett is more than a name. More than a random combination of letters. That word IS me. And whilst I feel mixed about myself in general, Arylett is perfect. It is THE name for me, the one that makes me feel more confident about myself. Thus, I can say I like it very much, and that it won't change any time soon. I hope to be Arylett for many years to come. |
