Oh yeah, you're right! Well I think all the others use their first name. Not sure why Gary did his like that.

I like that we can change our usernames. I'm thinking about losing the "isis" username...(I thought I would keep it forever until the ISIS terrorist group showed up.)
Well I wasn't 'forced'. I simply followed convention. I wasn't attached to my original name and in fact didn't even really like it. Plus, I only had it a few weeks. I became a mod in the first month or so of the forum's inception.
The Egyptian goddess Isis will endure longer than any terrorist group! That's awful that they co-opted that name, but you can help reclaim it! (or at least that's one possible way to look at it.)
I can see why people might want to change their names. But it's really confusing for the other members who don't know who you are.
