I don't! I have a username I usually use elsewhere that I really like but it's too easy to use to identify me and so I can't use it here. I want to change my name but now I am worried I won't like the new one either and won't be able to change it again!
Anyway, just for fun,
do you like your username?

Exact opposite reason here... I have/had a standard username that I've used everywhere on the internet since 2006, but since I started posting here about TTC, I wanted a "secret" username that no one could "trace" me by. But I didn't put a lot of thought into it and now I think it's dumb and sounds like an AIM screenname from the early 00s.

@DesertDreams88: DH has one like yours that he still uses everywhere...I know what you mean. 
That's ok! It dates you in a timeless classic way!

I just changed mine last month and I am happy now! My old one irritated me, I was not happy with it.

Mine's just ok. The username I use for everything else is basically my full name and didn't want people to identify me.

It's OK. I changed it once a long time ago and this is better (a bit more anonymous, I think) and has some meaning to me, so it works. I am always jealous of you super-clever Bees out there with great names!

Yup! I love the ocean and my favorite color is coral...so it was a "win-win" for me.

I like my username. My husband gave me a peace lily years ago, so before we were even married. It's the only plant we've managed to keep alive for so long and I love how it looks.

Ummmm where do I change it? I just looked under edit profile and I'm not seeing an option?

@dc yoga bee: what was it before?
@mrsbubbletea: thank goodness you didn't change your pic or else I wouldn't have recognized you!
I like mine. My first name idea was hard for me to spell.

I like mine except the number annoys me, the 87 makes it seem like I was born in 1987 but it actually refers to my anniversary (aug 7). Oops

Not really. I don't really care about the color purple or daisies! It just popped into my head and I figured I would change it later but I haven't been able to come up with anything better.

@mrsbubbletea: I'm realizing the picture is almost more important than the name!

@Truth Bombs: I think your name is accurate
@Adira: @Coral: @Periwinkle: I think I want a simple one word name like yours! Easy and memorable
@babypugs: baby pugs are very cute though
@PeaceLily: that is sweet 
@DesertDreams88: aim was the best though!
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: you could change your name to mrs poopoo pants and everyone would still know you by the photo 
@nana87: or you're an 87 year old grandma hanging out on the bee
@Purpledaisy: it's so hard to think of something that doesn't seem silly later! But I think your name is nice.

@petitenoisette: aww thanks, The Cherry Blossoms are my 3rd or 4th pic. It took me awhile to get my avatar just right.
