Do you have a single username you feel attached to?
Or do you like to use different names for different occasions?


Edit two and a half days later:
Thank you all for answering my question! It was so interesting and fun to read all of your responses.
I really appreciate you for taking the time to write.

    Very. This IS my online name. Although it started out as a way to be anonymous online, by now it is darn easy to connect with my real identity.

    And its more unique than my real name. Theres enough Tom André 's out there on the web that any variation of it as username is usually taken, but emptyother (or empty_other) is always free. I prefer it over my real name, when online. Easier to recognize in chats.

    Also its a overly literal translation of my name from my language to English. Tom = Empty, Andre = Others.
