I’m not planning on changing my name anytime soon, but if I ever do, I want a list to refer to (and perhaps some lurker does, too). I’m not sure if the following are used, but here’s what I have so far: [ul] [li] **Chair** [/li][li] **Adam and DVD** [/li][li] **Biomusicology** [/li][/ul] Hmm… Now that I look at it, that’s a pretty short list. Chair has probably been used, too. So that leaves two. Well, anyone want to help out and add a few more names? Of course you do. ---

I think I’ve seen **Inky** before. I think it was here, anyway. Man, I’ve been thinking about this too, just because I’d love to ditch the “1222” thing. I think I’d lean towards the kind of names that Car Talk would have: Etienne Wheeler Selma Junkoff etc. Like there’s a username on Fathom **Mahatma Coat** that I’m just fascinated by, because I love to say it out loud & cackle like Click & Clack. Oh, and I could also use a good sig, too. ---

Spiffy User Names - There has to be a straight **Monty Python**. **Spork** would be cool, but I’ll bet there is one already and I just don’t know it. **Green Jello** would have to be my favorite, however uncreative, since I almost chose it as my user name. I have _no_ imagination…Oh well… ---

While I was in the shower this morning, it crossed my mind that a good username would be **Armand Allegro**. ---

**Son of Dad** “it’s kind of a catch-all.” From what I can tell from Yahoo Pool, most people don’t really put much thought into their usernames, though. Just ask one guy I saw in there today - **nipples696969**. Colin ---

the “nipples696969etc” thing reminds me of every freaking trendy teenage girl who has “roxy” somewhere in her user name/email address. it’s sad, really. but my contribution to the screen names not already taken: “pooderhead” “gullet” “nougat” ---

My favorite Car Talk name is for the Russian chauffeur, Pikov Andropov. I’ve toyed around with the idea of renaming myself **Damfino** but I think I’ll stick with what I’ve got. There was another thread like this a while back. A few I suggested were: CarpalTunnelMan Furry Utopia Standard Candle The Cat Who Went Mad Under the Light of the Moon (yes, I know it’s too long…) Mars Needs Omelets Casual Madness Frostbite Moon ---

I’m not positive, but I believe that **Kat’s Devoted Servant** is still available. 😃 Some others: [ul] [li]Peanut Butter Fly[/li][li]Cat-shaped Lump of Fur (this is one of Shan’s nicknames)[/li][li]Sosumi[/li][li]Secondhand Fortune Cookie[/li][/ul] ---
