How did you choose your username? • page 1/4 • Off-Topic Discussion • lichess.org

I chose mine like this: so to make a new account I needed to create a new gmail account and I used my mums phone number to get the verification code so I had to take her phone and use it which she wasn’t happy about and said that she would change the iPad password so I called the account mummy is my god to keep her happy (:

mine is a variation of my first user name that I chose when I first joined FICS all those years ago. I was bouncing between several part time jobs, none of them paying much, all of them demanding a lot of my time and energy. I was consistently getting home late in the evening, and cooking my dinner after dark. So there I was, sitting at my desk, supper bubbling away in the kitchen, and the FICS website asked me to create a username for myself, and the old joke ran through my head: "I don't care what you call me, just don't call me late for dinner" Then the thought struck: you might as well call me Latefordinner, because I eat dinner late every night. And that name (rather, variations of that name) have stuck with me since.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

nope. I was the original latefordinner on FICS and a few other places. (I suppose I still am, but haven't been there to check in a dog's age) I just changed it myself a few times since for a variety or reasons.
