Thinking of changing your username?

Raincutter said
hmm… although I like the change of greatdiane, but I’m not particularly fond of name with numbers at the end. And I always read it ‘GreatDiane’. No ‘GreatDane’ or ‘Grenadine’.

Why do you think that?, what about Hydro74, CS89 , STUDIO28, and also agencies…

Thanks for your comments, GreatDiane wasn’t really bad, is just that I heard lot of people telling the opposite about my nickname. Can someone explain why using numbers is not good? I don´t see why See how cool is Hydro74, csj89.com, Studio28, Castro13 (Art director), 9GAG, 123KLAN.com..

but as you say, is about how I market myself/product, I hope that I´m doing the right way

And too late, envato support says that I can´t change my username many times :/

Thanks!

As far as my opinion on numbers goes, it’s not a general “numbers are bad” opinion. Don’t take this too seriously, but according to you, for me, dianah86 tells me “I’m a girl that is probably called Diana H. or my name is Diana and I am cool so I put a h behind my name so its like “Dian-Ah!”, I was born in 1986, probably just got out of college and am doing a bit of freelancing stuff next to my part time job at the local shoe store.”
That’s not somebody I would hire.
And yeah, I think it’s possible to change the username once on Envato, which is probably not so bad.
All the best to you and your new name

@Dianah: I’m ok with it being Dianah. With what I said, I didn’t mean using numbers in a name is a bad choice but it must show some purpose. There are pretty many web agencies out there with numbers in their names and they all sound nice. studio7designs, outline2design, base6design etc. and so many. It’s just that dianah86 sounds more of a forum junkie than a brand identity itself. May be it’s just me. I dunno. It’s your choice in the end. If you feel it’s good, forget about us. It’s solely a matter of personal choice. Good luck with it.

I¨m using the H because my last name is Hernandez.

hmm, I´ll see if I can back to my old username, greatdiane, lol, thanks again! It looks like I´m not so good creating usernames.

Feeling good again? There’s no thing about creating good usernames. As I said, it’s just a matter of personal choice. For example: raincutter seems to be quite an overkill for a brand but well, this is how it is and I am happy with it. Anyways, good luck again.

Dianah86 sounds good to me personally. I think what people care about is the product. And for me, choosing name is always making headaches
