    No, I’ve changed it.

    My reddit name became known to a couple of my friends during the 10 years I was there and I want the total anonymity again.

    My user name is just too cool to not reuse!

    Nope, my old username sucked because everything else was taken.

    I considered it, but I liked the idea that I could actually pick something short and (semi)sweet instead.

    Plus, new start and all that.

    Went on a streak of switching usernames because there were people who had nearly the same username, and coined this one up like 3 years ago and settled with it since. Pretty much use this everywhere except for school and Reddit.

    I am using the same username, though not the same display name (as most of these don’t have a display name option). Only fitting.

    This username has been going with me for two decades. I did use it in Reddit, some years ago, but I deleted that account back then - disgusted at the company.

    I typically change my username every few months, so no. Can’t get attached to any one online identity.

    Yes and no. For this account it is linked to my mod page for skyrim, so used the same name. My other accounts were able to get usernames I originally wanted but were unavailable.

    Yeah, although in hindsight i probably should have taken advantage of the fact that not all the simple short usernames are taken here
