I’ve never been too thrilled with my name choice. I think I was really tired when I signed up, determined to be a platypus, and thinking an adjective was needed.
So I’ve been pondering a name change here and there for the past year, but I never got around to doing anything about my lousy name. The thread going on about best usernames has motivated me to, well, ask you for help! I’m so tired of looking at my posts and going “Bleh, I’m almost embarassed to have that name” and it actually keeps me from posting sometimes. I’m awful at picking new names, though.
Halp!
Suggestions do not have to involve the noble platypus.
I don’t know if you like the movie Fletch. I just read the script (the version used just before filming began), and that was one of the original version of one of the Fletch character’s many pseudonymic surnames – specifically, the one which ended up as “Cocktoastin” in the film itself (probably a Chevy Chase ad-lib).
Anyway, it’s obscure and nerdy-yet-hip, just right for a Doper.
