If you were joining this forum today , would you still sign up with the same username you originally did?

[Reecejackox 397]

Probably for myself cool

[Megas 27,567]

I like changing my name a lot, but my current name is more or less the same I had from the start and use almost anywhere else, minus the numbers

If I joined MLP Forums today, I would still be "Sparklefan1234" because that's what I use on DeviantArt.  

[RDDash 19,163]

Well, it's probably would have been the same as my current display name. But it's kind of doesn't matter because the other people can't see it.

My original username was in reference to Fluttershy being my #1 favorite pony at the time, which later changed to Lyra, so no, I wouldn't have used my original name. I could see myself still using "lyrabetes", but maybe I would have put a different number after it, since the original significance of 39 is kind of lost now. I can't say for sure.

[SharpWit 2,614]

Well firstly, I doubt that I would have gotten into it at this stage. I didn't even know that G4 existed until 2 of my friends introduced me to it mid second season. I hadn't come across anything regarding the fandom. It had produced art and music even by then, but a fresh look from today would leave me to thinking of it all as a neat oddity, and a bit overwhelming to get into, so I probably wouldn't bother.

As for my name, I came up with it after someone said I looked "Sharp" in regards to my Halloween costume, which was a prohibition gangster. Very circumstantial, so I'm sure it'd be different. Half the time I've gone by a different name on other pony sites, but that's of a character I made and isn't exactly me per se.

[Tacodidra 61,077]

I still use the name I registered with (and have never changed other than on one Halloween), so I definitely would. Everyone knows me by this name anyway.

[Theautisticrebel 304]

No, not because I'm not autistic (I am), but I've been diagnosed with other disorders since I've first created my account.

[Pentium100 2,120]

Yes, I have been using this username for decades.

[Iforgotmybrain 5,512]

Absolutely since I just rejoined recently. Plus I use Iforgotmybrain for pretty much everything, not sure what else I would make it.

[Ice Princess Silky <3 13,523]

Oh, absolutely! Magical Mare is still me! <3 But I changed it to Silky since people were demanding my newer name back ahhaha <3 

[Clawdeen 12,189]

Absolutely. I still love Monster High and Operetta

[Evil Pink One 13,506]

Yes.... This name became an identity of mine.... All fear this name....

Silly Kujah, I laugh at that namesie, neeeeigh~ 

As for me? I guess I would use some other name. This one feels boring and out of place.

Hhhhhhhkkkkkk

[Envy 6,143]

Pretty sure I wouldn't. I haven't signed up anywhere with the username Envy in years now. For nearly a decade now my usernames have now been musical in some way.

[Cash In 22,220]

I don't know actually. "Cash In" was my nickname IRL, but the first time I used it as an online alias was when I signed up here. That was because I couldn't come up with anything better. Had I joined today, I might've come up with something else instead.

[Savy 5,075]

I don't even remember the very first username I signed up with, I know it wasn't Savy or Savygriffs though.

So no I probably wouldn't.

[Rikifive 24,126]

I guess so, I never changed my name and I still register in different places with it.

[Sir Hugsalot 9,287]

Likely yes, even though I was... barely known under my original name. I literally created it by slightly changing my regular online username so that nobody tracks me down being a brony  Today I... don't really care much about being "caught" anymore 

[Shiny Silvermoon 3,703]

Originally my username was Shiny Star for like two days. Then, I changed it for Shiny Silvermoon which is more fitting to me. Changing my username was quite fast and easy so I don't see any reason why I should change the past. I've been Shiny Star only for two days anyway, I bet that I'm the only pony who recall it! 

[MidnightFire1222 2,118]

I'd keep my name. I'm too attached to it and have been for many years, even from before I joined this site back in...2014. Wow, I've been here awhile. Lol.

[ZiggWheelsManning 9,960]

I may consider a different username, instead of the one that's of thoughtful inspiration of Peyton Manning, the former NFL quarterback  

[Ganondorf8 11,285]

My answer to this question is yes. I've been known by my username for about twenty years now, and I can't see myself changing it any time soon or at all. I guess I'm just a stickler for wanting to maintain something I've used for so long.

[FlitterFlutter 1,583]

NO, i would definitely not use boy5400 for my username. I don't feel like it represents me at all. I only used it at the time because it was the same as my name on the PlayStation network. I never really liked the name but as a young kid with gender dysphoria I was definitely coping.
