Thank you.

Quick question..

Do you think my username is too obvious? I have seen nesties on the other boards discuss about how unsafe some usernames are.

Just curious. Sorry if it's a stupid question. I'm full of 'em!

TIA :)

Anniversary

Re: Quick question..

  • Nah. I think you're fine. It's really user names that include last names or email addresses that you have to worry about. Not a dumb question. :)

    I agree!

  • You're good. Meg D doesn't give anyone a good idea of your real name. It's only when your full last name is used in the username that you need to be careful.

  • No, I think you are good. A name that allows someone to search for you elsewhere (ie facebook, white pages etc) is where people think it needs to be changed. :)

  • I think you're fine. I think it is last names they worry about, I used to have my user name as my first initial and maiden name, so I abbreviated, but I don't think you have anything to worry about

  • Can you change your username if you want to? I tried and the only thing I can see is you can't change it... anyone know?
  • Thanks, everyone!

    Sometimes if you are having issues the whill change your name for you, but most people have to set up a new account to change their SN.

    They (Nest gods) have changed a few people who had last names and email addresses as their usernames. But, typically you need to set up a new account.
