Should I change my username?

I'll let you in on a little secret and hope that doesn't offend anyone... 👀 I secretly love the versatility of potatoes as food. 😱

I feel like the joke of being offended by potato dishes is getting a little old, and it's getting in the way of replying to food related questions honestly.

What else to name myself though? Maybe Andrefteling, after the nickname I gave the André Rieu and Efteling trip @TheRealBarbossa and I are going on. That would cover a lot of content I plan to post for at least 10 months, after which I could probably change it again. It's not my intention to post only about that, but then again, a username doesn't have to reflect everything. So maybe? 🤔

I like your name and I'm used to you with it but do what makes you happy

We best ask @TheLadyPotato for this. Maybe you can try a fruit this time?
@Captainjackass NerdyAvocado would definitely solve the issues with food posts and has kind of a nice ring to it too. 🤔

@NerdyPotato I’ve never cared for avocados.
Who doesn't love potatoes?
I like the avocado version too but so as you feel best.
How about Studly Spudly?
@ElyssTTTrucks I would never call myself a stud. 🤣 That's for others to call me. 😇 And it wouldn't solve the issue with my relation to potatoes, but the stud part is more important. 😅
Lol, I've actually had times where my persona has gotten in the way of something I really wanted to ask/get feedback on - but I couldn't exactly do it because I could see the "Your poor innocence" responses coming before I even made the post.

At the same time, I know some secretly love seeing that response on posts... and I've had messages from people telling me that they associate the owl with me - like, they saw something owl related in their real lives that day and they thought of me.

Sometimes, I wonder if Hooty has run its course after six years??? But I also feel like I backed myself into a bit of a corner with this one and I can't get out of it.

You should probably try something new
How many people, besides Dutch, Germans and Belgians will know de Efteling? So it has a bit of a narrowing, or a local ring to it. Why don't you keep the potato, and skip the nerdy part? PotatoPossibility, or PotatoExperience would be closer to the way we know you
@Thewhazzupdude there's nothing wrong with it being a bit local, and keeping the potato part doesn't solve the issues with potatoes. 🤔

@Thewhazzupdude i like the local touch
I like your username.
Its become iconic with your identity here.
I think it truly suits your unique view on things and even who you are....you ARE a very NERDY POTATO😂🤗

But then, that's just me.
You and i have been here so long id have trouble adjusting to seeing you any differently than my favoritest geeky spud🤗
