Title: Change of Scenery? Why'd ye change y'er username?
Post by: Enoki on January 09, 2017, 07:42:47 pm
So, I know I was very excited to see the option to change m'username- thanks Raz!! I was just wondering why ye all 'ave changed y'er username, what made ye want to do it, what's y'er new username mean? Who are all of ye because I now can't tell who's who?! XD Lol!

Anyways, I'll go first.

Although I really loved m'old username, I found it a little confusing since m'middle name is Rose and that Rose isn't the same Rose and 'tis all over the place. I wanted something simple, not long but rememorable. I also don't play on m'fox character much, and I'm always on Eno so it seemed appropriate. What it means, well, enokis are white Japanese mushrooms with very long stalks with a small button-like cap. They are absolutely adorable in the mushroom sense, although I'd never eat one because I really hate mushrooms (unless they're fried and stuffed ;D).

I have many reasons as to why I changed my username.
The main one being that I thought TwistedSorrowz was way too long, But also I like the name Joji and it sounds nice. It's also the name of my favourite YouTuber and Music Artist.

I'll go ahead and move this over to the forum discussion board since I think it will fit better there ^^'

My old user was Shadowtooth, the first one I made that was inspired by my old love for the Warrior cat books. About a year or two after that, I didn't like the name anymore, and based a new username on my first character's name, Edol. Therefore, I made my Edolicious account. Just recently I deleted the newer Edolicious one, and just changed the old Shadowtooth one into Edolicious.

Dun think I'll be changing it anymore from here.

Well to be honest I didn't really like the name I had before which was Fireboss. xD So I changed it to the first word that came to my mind which was Reaper, and also because I had many characters name Reaper before. To my surprising the name wasn't taken, and so I am now happy with this username now. :-P

I just needed a new change I guess. Something new, something that represents me more. Not only is my username the name of one of my favorite bands, but it just seems to describe me with my anxiety issues, how they burn through me until nothing but ashes remain.

I didn't even realize that usernames were changable now thanks Raz <3
As of this post I think I'm going to change mine to Klipspringer, since it's where the "springer" portion of my old name came from, and like, dude, look at these things. Adorable.

I made this account when I was a wee newbie. Basically, it was misspelled and didn't suit me anymore, or has it ever in my opinion. And honestly, Whisperingwaves has been my alias for about two years now, so why not change it over, y'know? It was time to make the official change.

I changed my username from .Canis Lupus. to Soaps because the . in my username gave me problems with presets.

I didn't really change my username that much, it's pretty much the same. It's so small of a change that I don't think a lot would notice unless I pointed it out. But, I did official change it.

My original username was Legendary~Grace and my new username is LegendaryGrace. I changed my username because the '~' was giving me issues with two things. The first, was file names for presets. Depending on the program, the '~' would change and it caused a lot of problems. Second, the '~' symbol in-game would not show up, and instead show up as a scribbled out glitch thing. It's not really a problem, but it always bothered me.

So. Yeah. Not much, but thought I'd notify you guys. :)

i changed my username from BladeDawns to what you see now for simple reasons: why the old username holds memories of good and bad, it's time for a new fresh start, y'know? a change of pace to keep up with the modern interests that i have

I once was a fellow named borborigmus, since a lot of my previous and uncreative names were mainly taken and I don't want to hassle with numbers and symbols, I simply typed in the strangest word that I know of, Borborygmus is the scientific name for the gurgling sound stomachs make.
I changed it to Aclediptus since it was easy to remember and quite recognisable, it sort of suits myself as an alias too so I like this change. Aclediptus was a name I came up myself, I just thought of something that sounds Latin and hey ho, Cled came to existence.

Post by: Kastilla on January 10, 2017, 06:36:08 pm
It's also the name of my favourite YouTuber and Music Artist. 
;) ;) ;) My hunch was correct, aha.

I haven't changed my username yet, nor do I have the need/want to. I've had this account for ... ever since FeralHeart came to be. So, I might just have to make a new account, like a back-up of some sort. I just cannot part with Kastilla; even though it made utterly no sense as to why it was named that. I am gonna be 17 this year; I made this account when I was 10. So, yes this is a big part of my social life.

Aye what a wonderful thread topic to make!

I changed my username because orcawhitewolf13 was from 2013... Like. I made it when I was super young, and it was way too long. It also bugged me because it was undercase, lmaaaoo. But ye', I chose Accailia because that is my main charry name, and everywhere else it is mah name. I feel much cleaner now, and with these new updates I feel things are becoming much easier.

Interesting topic~

My old username was Nutmeg Toboe, super old username. I have a lot of bad memories with it. Changing it is basically a way of forgetting the past. 'Kouvinxx' is a mix of my fursona's names. Koujaku, Vinny and Jinxx.

Since I changed my username, Again. I decided to re-write this as I have a different and more interesting reason.
I've always loved Dalmatians and of course the movie 101 Dalmatians. I've always found the body structure and how smart Dalmatians are, And they represent me in a way.
They can be very energetic, but also lazy.
They're very smart domestic dogs and I find them very interesting to learn about.

My old username PokemonXY..

really old self

really?

I remember not being able to come up with anything so I just named my account after the Pokemon game I was hyped for, X and Y. However now X and Y is out so the username sort of lost it's meaning and at one point people called me Green. At the time I had that name I made a friend on FeralHeart who was called AngelMeep and has called me Green ever since we first met, and because I've used the name Greenflower on most things ever since that best friend called me that it's become quite meaningful to me.

Post by: Rostova on January 24, 2017, 09:36:36 pm
I changed mine because the username wolfgirl1504 is as cringe-worthy as it gets, heh. I chose it because i was out of ideas, and my username for another site called transformice was Wolfgirl150, so i just added a 4.

I chose Theodosia because not only does it scream "FaNdOm", it's a very pretty name in my opinion.


Holy heck that's an old post ^^

I changed my username yet again due to my interests changing (Also Rostova is just kind of a nice name in my opinion)

First: puppy-girl
Changed Because: IT WAS SO CRINGY AND I WAS TWELVE OKAY.

Second: CuPcAkEiSyUmMy
Changed Because: I had it for years, and as I grew the username no longer described who I was. Not to mention at the time there were certain people who knew the username, and I wanted a breath of fresh air away from them. I left FH for a year before changing again, and when I returned it was with my new [and current] username.

Third [and final]: OnionKnight
Changed Because: Listed above. I grabbed this username as a joke and to pay homage to my DarkSouls obsession lol. It grew on me, and became something more. I've been away from FH for awhile now, and you won't find me in game at all or as often but thats my user now. xD

I changed my username to Dallas because it's the name of my hyena character that I made back in 2011 and still use frequently. Surprised the name wasn't taken, honestly. My previous username was Demonzay- it was a name I'd use years ago, really glad I could change it.

Well, my old username was come up by a younger version of myself who was too desperate to get an account during the allotted 2-hour time period to think hard on a good username!

I always went by "Echoz" on the old forum as my nickname, and decided to change it to ".Echoz." since the other username was already taken, haha c:

It's nice to see everyone changing things up a bit. FeralHeart really has had a fresh start, which I believe to be good for this community!

Post by: Morgra on February 15, 2017, 04:14:04 am
I decided to change my username the other day because I thought just "Morgra" would be better suited for me now than "MorgraWolf". I was a lot younger when I made my account and now I just see the "Wolf" part of the name unnecessary and kind of out of place. And I'm still known as the same name so it isn't really much of a change but i'm happy I was able to do it.

What a great topic you've made, Enoki! +floof
The reason I have changed my username is because I wanted a change. I wanted something new and fresh.
The "NW" in my username stands for Night Watch (in bulgarian: Нощен Страж), which was the name of the clan I was in (in another game). While watching Teen Wolf, I've heard the name "Deucalion" and I really liked it, so I decided to use it over here. I also decided to look up the name in Google and found it really interesting.
