I know this is a bit pathetic, but could someone help me think of a new username?

I know it's feeble.

I want to come up with a new username. But I'm unwell and tired and a bit sad for various reasons and I just can't seem to corral my thoughts properly.

I want something to do with dinosaurs or dragons. Or witches. Or...narwhals? Or space? Or Terry Pratchett?

I'm aware that list makes me sound like a child.

Can anyone help my overtaxed brain find something?

Caroline Herschel A pioneer in astronomy, she discovered several comets and worked on developing telescope lenses. I like a user name that reminds of women who made achievements in their field.

I was inspired by your thread to change my name. I love a pun or play on words.

OmniPocket · 19/12/2023 16:51

Thanks for the ideas everyone. Really helpful.

@AdaColeman Hmm that's an idea, thank you. Mary Anning and Cecilia Payne are women I admire a lot so maybe there's something there.

I believe Lady Sybil’s favourite swamp dragon is called Errol if that’s any inspiration!

Oh I would love that, but Errol's already here!

The name of the first pet you had ending in -saurus.

Abraca-your favourite swear word.

Because I’m currently wearing a t-shirt that has a pterodactyl on it (along with a t-Rex, triceratops, brontosaurus, and stegosaurus).
