    In the past, soon after the announcement of username changes removal I asked "Will you regret your final username change?" I'm asking this question here again. Did you regret it? If you could redo time would you change it again? Why & to what? If you're newer, do you wish you signed up with something different (especially if you didn't know there was no name changes)? Use those sexy fingers of yours and click "reply" to this thread!
     
    I definitely do not regret it! I think this name suits me more than my original username, and what's scary is that I almost didn't get it. Hiiro/Aerilyn's username was Sydian right before the final day for name changes and I had used it previously, so after discussing it with him, he went back to Hiiro and I went back to Sydian. And really, I think had it not been for that and the "he stole my name!" feeling, I'd still be SilverSmeargleSplatter. Shivi, if you're reading this, thanks for stealing my username! <3
     
    Absolutely not! I've had this name for five years, and it's very difficult to think of myself under a different name. Honestly, there's no other name I could think of to use. (Which is a shame because it's kind of a known name, and sometimes it's taken.)

    I'm glad that I got the inspiration for this name when I did. Otherwise, I would have missed out on it entirely and would have been stuck with a name that never led me to being happier.
     
    I don't regret this one at all since it's only been a little over a month, but the ones I used years ago make me cringe. Truth be told, if I remembered the passwords I would have ended up using one of them again for simplicity's sake but it was a blessing that I don't remember things from my adolescence very well.
     
    Ehhhh I like it sort of. :P

    I don't know, I'd probably change it if I could honestly to something shorter or something else. Altaria was always one I liked and I'd change to that if it wasn't taken or maybe Altair. :D
     
    I have no regrets about my choice. It's made up of 1) Torn City, the text-based MMORPG I found years ago and I still play today, and 2) the nickname my friends gave me because I reminded them of various characters named Zero.

    The only thing I don't really like is people automatically just calling me "Torn", but it's bearable. I've begun using other usernames on different places, though. I have four in total that I regularly use now, including this one.
     
    If Aryan username was not taken, then I would change my name from Aryan143 to Aryan.
     
    I'm alright with this name, given there's an unusual origin behind it. I joined long after the name changes were killed off and this was my old username on Bulbagarden (I have since rejoined that forum on a new account) so it sorta carried over to here.

    I like the name Hikari, and blame my former fangirl status towards Dawn/Hikari for it, "Hikari" was already taken so I had to add on those numbers. The 10 actually comes from October, the month I was born in. Even though I have been using different names elsewhere as of late (such as Daikenki on PokeSphere and Ever Grande, and OshyHikari on Twitter, Ask.FM and the Pokemon Showdown server) but I don't regret choosing this name at all.

    I'm still proud of this name despite having to use generic numbers. Despite the fact I rarely use the character I named myself after in my forumsets anymore, but I guess it had something to with me being all grown up eh?

    I like mines, since LilJz is pretty much unique to me since it represents my name and the Lil used to represent how short I was, haha. Although I would remove the 1234 if it was possible *_*
     
    I'm pretty much fine with the username I have. It's unique and I don't see myself changing it. AWsquared was pretty much the name I had in mind when signing up so I don't mind having it forever. It's the username I use on almost every site I join along with Kouzan. If anything I'd change it to Kouzan if given the chance for the sake of changing it, but I'm satisfied with AWsquared.
     
    Honestly I don't like this username as much as I used to back when I first came up with it and used it primarily as a gamertag. Granted it was sastifactory back when I was still 17 but now it just feels dated compared to my main alias of Magus nowadays.
     
    If I had to change it I would most likely use Hollowman, or Skellington.
    But to be honest i'm fine with Rococo. It just rolls off your tongue so beautifully. :x
