It's time for a new name-change period!

Pokemon Name Rater

If you would like to change your username, you can do so very soon. As usual this thread is open for a few days before the names can be changed, to give everyone time to see they are coming. You may also wish to post an answer asking for others' opinions on possible names you're considering.

Username changes will open Monday 10th April and close Wednesday 12th.

Username restrictions:

  • The maximum number of characters for usernames is 20. This includes all letters, numbers, symbols and spaces.
  • Due to technical restrictions these 3 characters cannot be used: @ + /
  • Usernames may not contain 'Pokemaster' or any profanity in them.
  • Invisible characters (e.g. zero-width spaces) are not allowed. Regular spaces are fine.

You will keep the username you choose for at least another six months, so ensure that the name you choose is one that you like!

Name changes are now closed.

Note: the name changing periods will change to March and September in the future. I didn't want to open it last weekend due to April Fools, and this weekend is Easter where people may be busy with family etc. Plus it's easier to remember it starts at the beginning of Spring and Fall/Autumn.

Imagine changing your username
Can you guys make sure to include your old username in your post? The point of this thread is to make it so people can recognise you. That doesn't work if they can't see the old name.
closed because closed ;-;
L (filler)
filler (filler)
Closed with the note: "I'm pokemaster, I don't need to tell you. But I'll tell you ANYWAY! Name changes over, and ya gonna be ok wif dat, or else I kick you off of the potato. Sorry I meant site. Stupid autocorrect. I definitely haven't been writing A LOT of stuff potato potatoes. Just stuff about how much I hate autocorrect."
Btw changed my name to ryter the greater, not that it's much of a difference, and shall keep it for 6 months.

Yours truly,
Ryter the great.

Woo it's that time again, and as usual, I don't have all that much ideas.

Given my last 2 usernames were inspired by my OC(s), I've decided on something along the lines of Silver Lining, which has nothing to do with any of my OCs, but because I already have white hairs at the young age of 10 (def my real age). But really, I want to incorporate something with silver or white in the name, maybe Whiteout.

Without furthur ado, my username change is...

Light Hope -> ~Whiteøut~

(Decent) Ideas are much appreciated.

Whiteout is pretty cool
Silverfish? Whitelist? White Noise? White Hair?
I like the first one better.

Hmm. Name changes are here, and I barely have ideas this time around. I am considering changing my name from -VoltMadness- to -RisingManectric-. Any (good) suggestions that are related to Electric-type moves and Mega Manectric would be really appreciated.

ManectricShock would be a good idea.

probs not but hey ho

Honestly, I never particularly liked this name in the first place. Time for a change:

RedMikki07 —> BlueVicky70 (for a day or two) —> AcidicHallucinations (for a minute) —> Hallucinogens

haha, nothing is wrong with me at all! just living my life, enjoying this hallucinations like any regular person with stomach acids would do! haha i love this name! i don’t need any help at all, especially a psychiatric hospital/mental institution! hahaha

btw if you’re wondering where I got the new, more eye-friendly name, a little monkey told me…

Depending on where “Kensa” originates, you should consider ケンサさん instead

My next username change will be a reference quote from a fic that I've helped Rosie Hood edit.
"You're not going anywhere, Mr. Anderson."

Hello, everyone. Jasone Σ Anderson here. I'm just a lone time-traveler from the land of Hisui.

After defeating Volo and rebuking plans to rule over the region, I've asked Dialga, the Ruler of Time, to transport me to the future so that I can get a better understanding of what the future holds. This has led me to be sent to the Paldea region where I've gotten a taste of futuristic technology. Thanks to Professor Turo and his Future Paradox Pokémon, I now know what lies for humanity.

After seeing such discoveries and freaking out in the process, I've then borrowed Turo's time machine and used it to transport myself to the past to the Johto region. Thankfully, it's not too far in the past. It also isn't too far into the future either. So, that is where I remain.

Pogokira --> Shallot --> Gokutenks

Eh, I was only two letters off.

Before you say "oh, it's another of your boring 'combine the names of two characters' usernames, how lame, change to Strawberry Shortcake instead", you're wrong. Gotenks' name is a combination of Goten and Trunks (imagine naming your child Trunks) to begin with, so slapping Goku onto it technically makes it a combination of three characters' names.

So there.

...

I forgot what I was talking about again.

Of course, nachos was going to be a meme name.
However the DB Discord has no mention of that name and I am known by a different name, which is…

nachos —> Rick Roll

EDIT: Wouldn’t it be more funny if I dedicated the whole of my user to paraguay?

Since the McRib Farewell Tour ended last year, I'm thinking of changing my name to something similarly stupid. Suggestions? This could also result in a gravatar change, maybe this?

Possibilities:
The Flying Primate
McWahnalds
MonkeyBusiness

Well that’s great except that I forgot all the ideas I had prior lol does anyone have any suggestions? I can do something you think around warriors something goth or something I don’t know just different and no I’m not stealing anyone’s ideas of their current user names I’m just giving general ideas. My current name is just the name of the character I made up and it was a sort of trying to get an idea. So any ideas?

Change it to sumwun_. After weeks of careful research, I have concluded that sumwun_ is mathematically the second best username.
How about Crystal Paradigm (or any transliteration of Crystal: Kristal, Krystal, etc...).

I don't have many ideas. I guess I could change to PKPeeKay, Pee Kay, or Peeing Kay, but I'm honestly not 100% sure. Any good ideas would be appreciated, however.

Last time I forgot to change my name lmao

TheMasterApe ---> Cosmic Eclipse

Simple and was the name of my cat when I was like 8. Well, she had a name similar to eclipse and people used to pronounce it eclispe anyway so we just started calling her eclipse. Its also a cool name I guess.

EDIT: Eclipse was taken, so Cosmic Eclipse will have to do. I am now a Pokemon tcg pack.

Username changes ..... that time of the year where your right brain suddenly stops working.
So, here are some half-brained ideas about what random strangers on a internet community of online cockfighters will know me as for the time being:

Talos ------- > Limbo
Just feeling patriotic. Great place to live, Limbo

Talos ----------- > Sigma
Σ is all

Talos --------- > Paralyzer
'cause I feel like a astronaut in the ocean

If someone's right brain is working (improbable), suggestions are welcome)

I honestly still like my current nickname (charcuterieaznable) which is a gag to Char Aznable from Gundam (+ Charcuterie which is really just a platter of meat assortments) x) which is kinda ironic because I really hate him (half-jokingly at least) but Im considering a name change to... drumroll

Deep-Sea-Prosciutto
or
Prosciuttorca

Deep-Sea Prosciutto is a reference to how prominent prosciuttos (thinly sliced dried meat snack) are in The Gray Garden by Funamusea (its a really good story-focus rpg!) and Prosciuttorca is that + Idate Orca from Wadanohara, one of my first fictional loves <3

Help me decide if I should keep my current usn or change it to any of the above :3
