    Default I declare that there shall be no more names!

    So yeah now that I'm back to Bert again I plan on sticking with it. everytime I change my name like one month later I hate it and want it changed back. Then I must wait 5 more months to have it changed. Well no more of that people!

    so how often do you change your name?
    do you like it when people change their names?
    which of my names is the best?

    I became theundeadmonkey once during the whole Pope drama a while ago. It was pretty fun fueling the fires of being a corrupt pope manipulated by monkey, and the name change was a great part of that. I didn't have to wait six months to change it back. It was only a month or two.

    I liked Shlupbert.

    I changed my name once and not a lot of people noticed, I don't think, because I hardly ever posted before I changed my name!

    I used to be Gir after the character in Invader Zim. Then I was like "wow, I don't even watch that show anymore. Time for a new name." So now I'm Pike and I don't plan on changing anytime soon

    I always change my name so as to make it fit with my age; hence Peter_20 signifies my being 20 years old.

    I'm gonna go on with this forever.

    Yeah I don't really care - but you know what's interesting, as soon as a name change becomes real and effective in life and not just an online pseudo identity.... people tend to receive the name change with less grace. I noticed this after watching my mom go through her own name change. Family member's and friends' reactions tended to be more judgemental.

    Boldly go.

    Jamil refused to change my forum name to Ericil when I asked him to do it. I have not changed my forum name here ever.

    Please stay with Bert. I think it took me less than a week to see that your new name was both alienating, sucky, and n00bish. Please stay with Bert. It's respectable and short. No need to shorten.

    I will never have my name changed.

    I haven't changed my name.. as of yet that is. I might some day - who knows?

    I think it's fine that people change their names, although it can be a bit confusing at times. Growing tired of something is completely natural.

    I've been yuna_elena, and kenstarr_subpoena. The latter was a forced name change! Yeah, I changed my name to Shauna, late 2005 because yuna_elena was one of those noob names you tend to use - and a lot of people knew me as Shauna anyway. So, it seemed appropriate.
