What should my new username be? The winning one will be the one I request to the Mods.
Wunderkind
Baby Genius
Curtis LeMayfield
Hyman G. Rickover
Good, I prefer to be the only person named after a General anyway.
Go with John Calvin.
I voted for Keep Curtis Lemay because Keep sounds like a nice first name.
Oops, I posted before the poll choices came up. I voted for Keep Curtis.
If you go with James K. Polk, there is a small but possibly significant subset of people that will think you are a They Might Be Giants fan.
I think Keep Curtis LeMay sounds like a great user name!
Major Frank Burns
General Disarray
I’ve gone to all this trouble to notice you, figure out who your namesake is, and make a mental index card about you, and now you’re gonna change it to Keep Curtis LeMay?
Why not open it up to suggestions as well. General Pyotr Nikolayevich Wrangel may be anticommunist enough for you, while having a little international flair.** Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg** would embody patriotism, sacrifice and anti-Nazi conservatism, with just a un soupçon of reactionary flair.Tōgō Heihachirō would be a nice naval departure, while still keeping the conservative, dutiful theme and yet opening up a vein of eastern exoticism.
Actually, Tōgō Heihachirō would be pretty cool.
Curtis, keep Curtis LeMay. Nothing wrong with that; given the alternatives you proposed. But given the available choices, “Curtis LeMay” works for me. Keep it.
By that I mean keep my current username.
Good suggestions but I as a Korean-American can never take the username of a Japanese empire-builder whose actions led to the annexation of Korea.
Who the hell is “Jonathon Edwards?” Do you mean this guy?

I understood. I was being jocular.
Sorry, I forgot you were of Korean ancestry. My apologies. Now I’m really worried that I’ll never be able to keep track of these things if I have to further update my mental index card. Keep Curtis LeMay
I recognize your name, so I vote for keep your name as is.
I’m going for “Keep Curtis Lemay.” What a terrific name, and totally accidental. Who cares it it wasn’t what you meant? It’s fantastic.
I might also change mine to “Let’s Ban RickJay.”
Funny, I was thinking about ‘Let’s Ban Rickjay’, but you can have it.
Better yet: Frank Burns Eats Worms.
Sorry, no way dude. The unintentional “mix-up” you created (i.e. should your user name be Curtis LeMay or Keep Curtis LeMay) is just too perfect. The Board just thrives on stuff like this. I really think you gotta go with Keep Curtis LeMay. Hilarious stuff there.
I do have a couple other suggestions though:
Curtis LeMaybe, Curtis LeMaybe Not (or, Curtis LeMaybe, LeMaybe Not)
