I changed my username - BigBadWolf is now BigDadWolf

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

I had never thought much about my username - it was just the first thing that came to mind when I decided to register to answer a question in a post years ago. It didn’t seem to matter much but as I have slowly gone from being a total lurker to a lurker who occassionally adds to the conversation, I began to wonder what my username said about me.

Then I saw this thread - http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=642982 - and realized not only can I not “explain” my username, I am concerned it gives the wrong impression of the sort of person I am as the Big Bad Wolf in most fairy tales tends not to be seen in a good light. So after some thought I decided to make a small change and become BigDadWolf - after all I am somewhat big, I am a dad, and hey, wolves are cool.

So the mundane pointless thing I must share is I changed my username by a single letter to better fit who I am in real life. Anyone else out there change their username to better fit who they are?

I dropped ‘Girl’ from the end of my username earlier this year, for a number of reasons, the biggest being that, imo, 30 is too old to be called girl.

You go girl!

I had a stupid username once, and I still do, but I like the new one better.

Heh. Drunky Smurf was the non-stupid one? :smiley:

What was the stupid one?

I’m kidding and curious at the same time. I like your current name, though, don’t’ get me wrong.
