    I (like many others, probably) selected my username without really knowing what WB was all about. And I hate it, and want to change it. Aside from just starting a new account (I'm only at 100!) can I change my username?

    The only thing you can do is ask for this account to be closed and open a new one. And losing your post count. Sorry love, but you are SOL.

    I like your name! I hate mine. Wish I was more creative... didn't realize I would be stuck with it forever.

    "Mrs. to be"

    How original...

    @Mrs.tobe: See I like your name! (Though the first time I saw it I read it wrong, Mrs. Toby) but I think it's really cute. And I'm only at 100 (and after tonight's chat they'll kick me back down to like 90. Again!) so it's not too much of a loss.

    Sorry, SOL.  Just as Tobe said, you have to start all over.

    I understand what you mean.  My name is so creative.  Hah.  Oh well, I'll survive.  I do like my own name, but would've been more unique with it.

    miss ranunculus    June 2, 2012   Columbus...reluctantly moving to Austin

    I used to post under a different name - for like 250 posts.  I hated the name I had chosen, and since it included my real first name I wasn't totally anonymous, and I decided I wanted to change while it was still relatively early, instead of hating the username forever.  I was sad to loose the posts, but it was worth it to get the name I wanted.

    @miss ranunculus: yeah, i'm in that same boat right now. except now FI knows about WB too and is giving me input on my name! lol he actually gives me ideas, it's so cute :) i don't think i'm quite to 250 yet, but the longer i wait the higher it gets :/

    @sorrycharlie: haha yeah, it's cute, just not very anonymous in my case.... my two favorite things are penguins and cupcakes, but those are already taken!

    I know, I hate mine too. I was in a hurry to register and didn't think of anything fun. I also wasn't planning to stay this long!

    I think your name is cool actually. I just entered the 1st thing that popped in my head without thinking about it so I guess I'm happy enough with it lol.

    I totally wish that you could change your name like 1 time without losing everything.  I am not FutureKMM anymore (and haven't been for months now) and I really wish I could change it to MrsKMM or something now that I am married.  But I am not losing my post count so no dice!

    You can go vote for this issue in the IDEAS section. A lot of users want the option.

    I'm still early with all the posts, but I'm slowly getting up there.  I don't want to start from scratch again.

    @sorrycharlie: I like that name, and it makes me giggle, but I don't think FI will be ok w/ me referring to him as Mr HappyFeet LOL!

    @LetsGoPens: OMG that's amazing :) can we talk about how I just saved that pic to my computer? Lol

    @Mrs.KMM: I agree a one-time only thing would be nice. I understand why we can't change our names on a whim whenever we want all the time. We'd never recognize each other! But once? Just once?!

    @Miss Tattoo: I think I will :) thanks!

    @maskelunass: same here ... I know to some users my 170 or whatever isn't anything, but I'm proud of it!
