Limiting name changes - what do you think

Saw this from Justine on another thread and just didn't want it to get lost

I'd really hate it if you limited name changes, I have so much fun (on occasion) playing around with names (innocently)

like with WigWamBam, I was WamBamSham
with Soupy I've been TwiglettDragon and SOUPerciliousDragon

I vote a big resounding NO (although maybe there could be a facility to get rid of them once you've used them?)

I've never messed about with sham names, but would like to! So I vote no.

As everything is anonymous anyway, I can't see how it would actually solve any problems. And it would put an end to the glorious nortiness of threads like Jane and the neighbour's cleaner and the cat and the football.

See how cool does that look

I've enjoyed playing around with silly names, too, always innocently and never maliciously. I think I'd be sad to see name changes limited, too.
