➡️See @Vexed post on how to CHANGE your username. Awesome "helpful" member!⬅️

 

(12/5/22) Hello Everyone:

 

When we register to use this AARP Community Board, the system "assigns" us a USERNAME based on our 1st name followed by the first character of our Last Name. Then adds several numbers to end.

 

Some of us keep this "assigned" USERNAME, while others "edit" it to their liking.

 

(1) .Did you keep the "assigned" USERNAME? 🤔

 

(2) .If you "changed it" why did you choose that username? 🤔

 

Lol, I often "giggle" at some of the "changed" USERNAMES. 😂🤣

Hope to hear from you!

 

Thanks,

Nicole 🙂 (Our Front Porch Forum)

Given a 'random alpha numeric name- but with an option to change... I sure will change to something more 'me'. First... numbers..? I'm not a number 🤔

.

With my love of music, I wanted to use a hopeful song as my username---> One Day Matisyahu is a song by an American singer - Matisyahu----> Matisyahu - Wikipedia

Yeah, Almost everybody thinks it's Japanese/ or other Asian meaning;.. it's not.

.

A song of Hope, and something to look forward for ------> Matisyahu - One Day (YouTube Version) - YouTube

.

And of course, change my Avatar.

.

PS - in less than a month you have won the 'Award for the Most Engaging Member' we've seen in the last two years. 😀

.

If you wish you may try for the 'Ace' badge. It kinda looks nice on an Avatar - looks like you're 'special' or 'in-the-know' Many of the 'Rewards Fanatics' members have them.

My user name goes back to January 2009.

Not sure how it worked back then.

Mine is my first Name and the first 3 letters of my last name.

@Anonymous Did you just backspace out the numbers then hit Update? I am not sure, but it might work, if you erased all of the name and entered NicoleW. I thought it might be worth a try.
