to be confused by posters with similar names?

[small brain]

I've seen a few recently, and I don't thinl they are topical name changes.

So, could people not do it?

Ok?

OK, are my dangly bits working?

Yay!

Thanks, MaryZed.

I've NEVER changed my name on here, but that's probably more to do with the fact that I don't know how, than anything else

I haven't seen anyone with a name similar to mine Having such a short name has downsides though - how am I supposed to get 'gold' or anything onto it in a witty way??

ChaosRulyTreigns - I'd keep it as a joke. Find a thread Chaos just posted on, then post directly after. You can count the number of confued users and the number of seconds till Chaos tell you to piss off

Ithinkitsjustme - Hover over 'My Mumsnet' then click on registration. Box called chat nickname

There were loads of monkeys on here at one time, we nearly formed a quiche. Haven't seen any for ages though.

Don't we all have varied Chaotic names? I got this one speshully for a Chaos Capitalisation Police thread.

There must be millions of us.

Maybe mumsnet should have an annual Chaos day (I nominate April 1st).

I've got a Chaos name too from another thread.

(Mardy btw)

It does seem to be a bit chaotic here today!

Or how about something with a French twist?

Ahem. That mis-spelling of Cahors was of course intentional.

That's better. :)

Tres good.

I had the same nickname for 10 years, yes 10 years (except for odd one off changes for delicate questions) but have got so fed up with someone, actually 2 people with names really similar to mine posting really inflammatory stuff, with complete opposite views to me....I kept thinking it was my posts people were reacting badly to and so although I don't think I was particularly well known, I thought it was time to change. And I rather like my new name

Puzzle Time - Name The Poster:

Vern + Lose the 'M' + This + Our Brucey + Offspring harness

n.b. I guarantee that there is NO dodginess in any link. Honest.

There's a new poster called tetherendtoo who let's her children wee in shoe shops.

I'm not sure how I feel abou it, TBH.

Kaye + bloke from Red Dwarf + True + Lee + Reins

That was to talcy btw. Yes, I would be worried too tethers.

Bloke from Red Dwarf??

That's MOSS from the IT Crowd!

Just started reading this thread and DowntonTrout really fucked with my head, so YANBU Chaos.
