I first discovered mumsnet (which I think is fab by the way) in December yet I only posted for the first time a few weeks ago. When I came to write my first post my 'username' came up as 'flowerpowerspiceknicks' and I thought oh yeah I could roll with that, its maybes something I would pick! ....well since using mumsnet quite often now I have seen other people's chosen usernames and I've started to think about my work night out 'do' in December and whether I was so tipsy/pissed that I registered with mumsnet then. So my question is (after a very long story)... Does mumsnet provide you with your first username or do you choose it?

You choose it.

Deedeecupcake · 11/02/2015 01:29

You provide it, if I remember correctly!!

RandomNPC · 11/02/2015 01:29

You choose it yourself.

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 11/02/2015 01:30

No. You choose it.

OldLadyKnows · 11/02/2015 01:33

Yes, flowerpower, you chose that all by yourself! Grin

flowerpowerspiceknicks · 11/02/2015 01:33

Just to clarify, so mumsnet does not even come up with name suggestions? Or hints?..I really did choose that completely myself? still wondering where on earth I derived that from

Actually, if a name is already taken (like flowerpower probably is) they do give you a few ridiculous suggestions you can go with, when you first register. Or maybe you got suggestions yelled at you in the pub, op. Or your equally drunk mate borrowed your phone while your concentration lapsed slightly, and chose a blinding name for you. Grin If you, get em in here, we need people like that for all the namechange competitions!
