I’m thinking about changing my user name. When I signed up, all I could think of was “monica,” so that’s what I used. Now, I want something at least slightly more mysterious/interesting. I’m thinking Señorita Morena. This has a spanish air about it, which I like because I love Spain, the spanish people, and the language itself. Also, the “morena” part is there because of my big brown eyes and thick, curly, long brown hair, two of my most noticable traits. Also, I won’t get mad if any of you don’t want to bother with the ~ over the n. I know it’s a pain.
Do I have any name recognition around the boards I need to worry about losing? I would doubt it, but I figure it wouldn’t hurt to ask.
Also, how would I go about doing this? Which mod/admin do I need to talk to?
I’ve always liked Monica. It’s a proud tradition - Monica was, after all, the mother of St Augstine, and it was said to be her prayer that converted Augustine from a libertine to the great apostle of Africa.
Don’t change your name. Right now, I recognize it and know that it corresponds to a reputable, likeable poster. Once you change it, you’re starting over from scratch. Worse, your post count is high enough that people will assume you must be uninteresting, or else they would have noticed you before.
Also, if you change it I will hate you like fire for the rest of my life.
Online translators aren’t the best at giving nuanced definitions but according to the one I just used, morena means colored person whereas it looks like you’re going for brunette.
One sentence. It took you only one sentence to crush the only feeling of accomplishment I’ve ever gotten after five years of posting. Nicely done. Very efficient.
