Update: Finally Set My First Name As WA Username
I've been thinking about it for a while.
Reasons why I didn't want to change it was because some members probably got used to my last name's username plus I was afraid that links that I shared in the past to my profile page would probably not work.
It seems that there are no error notices and you guys will have an easier time remembering my name or searching for it in the bar @zarina or something.
Don't you think?
To positive changes! :)

You have a beautiful first name Iike that why would you not want to use it look at mine it’s Robert one of the plainest names out there I was trying to figure out a cool pen name lol but I still had to keep my own as Albert Hitchcock was already as taken lol
Frankly, I am not sure why I never entered my first name as username back in 2015.
Was stuck with my old username and over time people remembered my username but lately I came across one post about not having names in the username (or in bio for that matter) and thought that maybe it's time for a change haha.
I definitely like it more now! There is this personal touch.
Definitely a more personal touch then username or admin do not know where they came up with those almost everything these days you usually have o put your name in or make up a user name this is one of the first places that never really asked
I know! I mean in forums it's understandable since people like to hide their identity but it's not relevant to WA community :)
A lot easier to remember, don't you think?
Although some people told me in the past that they have a hard time remembering my name b/c it's not common lol
It is definitely easier. It is good to be different. You stand out, in a great way. You are marketable. So is Zarina. I think it is a great change for future growth.
Well done!
You just made me blush, Craig. Thank you for your kind words and your support!! Much appreciated :)
Haha I remember Michael! Actually it was your post that got me thinking (where you said that you knew people's names even if it wasn't part of their usernames or something)
I THOUGHT SO! I have a good memory too Zarina Your true image behind all avatars stays with me! :))
Yeah... A great move, Zaria. I love to see people's names(and faces, too!), especially if they are as beautiful as yours...
Hope you will stay recognisable by your fans...lol:))
Vera thank you for your kind words! :) I know I hate it when I don't see any images and even more if I can't find one's name in their bio/username to address them directly
Yes! Exactly...Sometimes you just see clones of dogs, sunsets, towers.... Don't people want to be themselves?:)
Yeah, everyone has their own motives...but good business ethics presupposes using our own names.Though if you are a writer and for some reason you want to hide yourself, you can use a penname of course...
