Right. And then change it back to the original.
Seriously. Only someone so fickle and difficult to please would change their username.
Only a total noob would do that.

I don't know. Something about hidden something, I wasn't paying attention.

Cool My new Name came through
I tried to log on with the old one and couldn't figure out why I couldn't log on?? (Too early in the Morning).
Hello, Gil Azell. I see you're ready to report for duty aboard my warship?
I expect you to keep your armor--and yourself--in top condition, for the glory of the Union, of course!
Who WERE you?
I guess that's the problem I have with name changes for established posters. You don't have a face here, and usernames are really all you have to represent yourself. Sure, some people pull it off without much problem, but for most people (at least, IMO), once you change your name, you basically deleted most of your personal history and started over. I might see your new username and glance over it, not making any connections to your old name and backstory. Or might wonder "whatever happened to X", not knowing I'm actually talking to them.
Unless there's major lifestyle changes (like needing a female name instead of a male name level of change), not a fan of the username changes in general. Realistially, it doesn't MEAN anything, it's just what everyone else is using as a placeholder to identify the person they are talking to without having to get the backstory every time.
When you change it, you're basically starting from scratch. Unless you're an epic failure, in which case, that's going to follow you and you won't escape
PKTrekGirl was Vash.
Anyway, my view is, if you have a much better name, use it, but stick with the much better name. If it's only a little bit better and then you decide you liked your old name better, you're just wasting everyone's time.

I wouldn't change mine. It fits me well.

Here, have some of this.
I... don't know where you're going with this. Is this a euphemism for something?
I would probably have kept that name were it not for my baseball obsession...
You like baseball?
A friend suggested it when I gave her a list of funny sounding names to use for one of my NA$CAR Pools, she said it suited me??
Well, you also got hit on a lot more with your other name (combined with avatar).
