  • Invisible characters would only confuse people, in case you mean to appear as if your name was Clover but not actually being it.

    Other strange characters should be fine, even though they are annoying and bothersome and I personally groan whenever I see them in usernames d: have it your way.

    Thanks for the info! I was mostly just curious. Strange characters and symbols can seem a little pretentious in usernames, yes. xD

    What exactly do you mean by confuse people, though?

    (you don't have to listen to my preferences though, haha, you are allowed to use other characters, afaik)

    I mean if you would make your new name something like "Clover " with like, an invisible character after the Clover, you can see how people would think you were the same person, right? You could argue something like ".Clover" would be confusing too, but at least a . isn't invisible d:

    Ah, I understand what you mean, but I don't think it would be much of an issue seeing as their account has been inactive and their username is mostly capitalised. :b Otherwise I wouldn't try to steal a name if the person was active!

    You could vary it up, like "Four-Leaf Clover" or something. Sure that's probably available.

    That's definitely an option but I've always been a stickler for one-word names haha. It's like this obsessive-compulsive rule of mine. :b

    Hi! Unfortunately, this thread is only open to PC supporters, as it says in the title. You can become one too, here: https://www.pokecommunity.com/donations/

    If you prefer not to, you can wait until May, when the normal name change thread will open up again!
