I really wish when I registered with SM that I had chosen a cool name, rather than just using my real name. Everyone has such creative names here... almost like video game characters.

sooooo my question is (kevin user added image

) can I change my name to something cooler? like "nosferatu" or "Mr.Phong" (I love Blinn's name user added image

) or whatever?!?!?

sincerly,
Mr. Normal Name Porter.

Awww, but Howard! You're cool without having to wear the false mantle of a cool sounding name.

I have two names, the one that comes on bank statements, and the other that comes forums. My name is the same all over the net.

Can we have a "pick howard a new name" thread? <snigger>.

I shortened the name I use for online gaming etc to what people usually shorten it to in conversations in game rooms etc. Despite someone here thinking I was a girl rather than a chap (hadn't occured to me!) I am so used to using it or it's longer version for everything online it's almost like my real name.

Even if you change your name now though we will still probably call you Howard user added image
