If a doper decided to leave and was bequeathing his or her name to the general doper public whose name(s) would you want? One of my favorites is **badbadrubberpiggy**. It never fails to make me smile or laugh, it’s just so silly! In a good way. How 'bout you? ---

**ultrafilter**. I thought of taking the name “Ultrapower” instead when I came here, but decided it was a bit too much. ---

I’ve always thought **Unauthorized Cinnamon** was a cool name. I’ve thought about changing mine, but then it would confuse the 5 people here who know who I am. ---

If we’re just trying to pick the cleverest name, **Freudian Slit** totally has my vote. Wouldn’t work for me since I’m not a gal, though. ---

Hey, on the Internet, nobody has to see your slit. I forget who came up with this name originally. It wasn’t me, but I remember seeing it a thread a while back and then claiming it as my own. I, too, thought it was most awesome. ---

It wasn’t me, but I remember seeing it a thread a while back and then claiming it as my own. I, too, thought it was most awesome. I want it too. FWIW, whenever I see it I want to sneak in next door at 4AM and slit someones throat while making terrible Freudian Psychology puns, so maybe I want it for… darker reasons than than the name is intended to portray. _cackles for 5 minutes_ ---

I’m a huge fan of the name **Czarcasm**. The clever names here were the reason it took me 2 years to register. I couldn’t come up with a name witty enough to suit me. ---

As an indologist I find the name **rasa** beautiful in its own quiet way, and **anaamika** is really cool, too. For attention I would go for **Capt. Ridley’s Shooting Party**. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whose-username-would-you-liike-to-have/487946.md?page=2)
