I think none of my threads here got so many answers.
Looks like the word Pez inspires you all!
@VF – yeah, that’s the point and reason why i started to think about changing it, although in origin i would like to just keep it. Anyway my brand won’t change, that’s for sure, i can’t think in other brand not related with fishes, almost all my work since i started as freelance is related with this concept. And even being a small author (yeah, elite, but small and not known anyway outside AD) i would like to keep the esence of my corporate image.
@CJ – No matter how good it could be, i’ll never name myself with the appleist “i”. I’ve enough to worry about how my works are displayed on Apples, and for that i already have your inbox, you already know… 
@Joost – Not dead at all. But maybe sometimes soooo lazy that i can look like a dead one.

Changing the name is like going back to square one because nobody will know or remember, so think twice before you proceed

Now now, it’s not all black and white
I believe changing your name slightly and not changing your avatar won’t do too much harm.

agreed I didn’t see any fallout when I changed mine and as long as Jesus keeps the Pez part I don’t think he will either.

You may try to combine your first name with the word ‘Pez’. For instance, if your name is Peter = PezPet or WorldofPez. But try not to change your Avatar because it will surely affect you in one way of another.
