Well, did you ever regret the username you picked? Maybe you used your real name or part of it, and people who you know in IRL realised who you were on Boards? Or perhaps you called yourself like Icky Poo!

Not for a second op. I am comfortable in the fact there is no other Mulcaghy with the name Patsy out there!

And if there is, come in here and we'el dance, Queensbury style :pac:

Not a bit of regret for this one... Although I don't like two of my old ones. One was a tad gay and the other was my nickname that everyone knows.

I'd never had a problem with it until my wife came across some fooker using the same name, but he has a penchant for dogging,bondage and the like. Luckily his avatar shows a pic of him naked at a window,I'm a fat cnut so she knew it wasn't me :pac:

I would prefer something that reflected my inherent loveability. Picking names based off the badassness of the song is not necessarily a good idea.

Kinda wish I had picked something pronounceable. Kinda hard when you're introducing yourself at the beers as:

"Hi, I'm Red-X-I-V"

Might change it....just to confuse people

is it from Final Fantasy? I always thought the character was called 'Red Eleven' because I'm not good at roman numerals, and that had a rhythm to it.

pretty much. I used to mod a big Final Fantasy forum and the game character RedXIII (13) was gone so I just went up a roman numeral to RedXIV(14)...

No idea why in hindsight....
