    Default Name Changes

    Have you ever had your name changed here during your stay at EoFF? Would you want to change it? If so what would you change it to? And just for fun if you could change any members names to something humorous what would you change it to? (All in niceness though, nothing mean)

    I've been thinking of a name change for a while. One idea I had was to just change my 2000 into the more appropriate year (i.e. 2008 for now, 2009 for next year, etc.) I had one idea to change it to BahaMatt, because it's what Levian and anyone else that knows my RL name seems to want to call me. >.>

    Then I've played with the idea of just making up something completely unique and to break away from that dragon/Bahamut theme I've had going for years.

    So how about you? What names have you gone by, wanted to go by, or would call other members?

    I was originally Twilight Paladin in 2005, then just my real name (Justin) in 2006, Poetically Pathetic in 2007, and Momiji from now on.

    I was Seikon-Shoukougun, then Randgris. I'm thinking of changing it (again?) but I'm still finding the right name for me. Any suggestions?

    Perhaps rename I Don't Need a Name to I Need a Name Change.

    No, I'd rename Quinny boy to "Quin-Tessence" (as per the 2nd meaning in dictionary.com). Then I'd make him an avatar and signature to go with it.

    As for myself, always been Rantzien here and I don't think it'll change.

    roto13 > roto13-ness > Roto13

    I wanted to change it to "This guy are Roto13" because it won my little contest thread in General FF, but Del and Leeza suck.

    Originally when I was joining I couldn't decide whehter I wanted a k or a c in the boko/boco, I ended up picking the c. Later on I decided boko looked cooler and had it changed. I'm pretty happy with my name.

    I like the nick Bahamut2000X, I just call you Bahamatt sometimes because it takes a year to type the first one.

    I was Omni Legacy for the longest time. Then I changed it to something hard to pronounce.

    Changing your name is Bad!

    When people change their names, it confuses me. I'm like, 'whatever happened to [such and such a member]?' Then about three months down the line, I realise they changed their name.

    It's especially confusing when members change their set as well!

    I was yuna_elena when I first joined, because underscores were cool back then. But, everyone knew me as Shauna, really, and I wanted to go with something less newbish - so my name was chosen for my new name. Doubt I'll change it again.

    I changed my name from Jesse1 to Jessweeee♪ because I'd been Jesse1 since I was eleven. I still go by Jesse1 in IRC, though

    I probably won't change it again.

    b2kx is pretty short.

    If I changed mine, it would probably be to allie, but then I'd go down in the google ranks for 'rubah' xD
