Do you love or hate it? Have you changed accounts to a name you like more?
When I first made the account, I liked the name but now I'm not a big fan of it. I always get comments like "why are you talking if you're quiet?" or people call me the-quite-one. I understand it's bit to type so I can forgive that. I'd change accounts but I've had it so long that I wouldn't want to lose that.
Yeah I don't really mind it too much, people joke about it all the time but I don't mind. Had a lot of people think I was trying to be cool by adding an ly but they don't seem to be aware that the word actually means something
yeah. i switched accounts back in like 2014 (maybe? or 2015? idk) because i didn't like my last username. it was awkward to type and people would always say it wrong and it was annoying lmao. happy i did switch mostly cos a week later my old account was hacked into so i'd have lost everything rip.
but yes i like this one although it doesn't actually mean anything it's just what @princess; started calling me
Not gonna lie, I kind of thought that that could have been your name and Sho was a nickname.. I'm a bit stupid.Quote:

Yes I love itttttt (thanks @Samantha;)
I've changed accounts so much it didn't really matter swapping again for a fab name and I think I'd feel weird still being 1umbrella1 haha
Very happy. My username on Habbo is Bongo. I don't know if the rules have changed, but long ago nobody could register the name because of its inclusion of the word bong. I emailed Player Support and asked if they could change my username to Bongo, and I received a reply from 0rca who happily dealt with my request. Thus I obtained an unobtainable name.
yes mine is cool
u should change ur forum name to matchQuote:

no!!!! @Sho;
Can we still do that? Emailing player support asking to change our usernames? Please, say yesQuote:

I'm not that satisfied with this one because some people don't talk to me thinking that I'm a mindless noob (which is half true!), that's why I also have the old unused fella lucpix just for formal emergencies
Probably not. It's been over ten years since I got my name changed, and I haven't heard good things about player support these days, but worth a try I guess.Quote:

Just remembered — I had an alt account I made a couple of years ago when they would give you a guest name (not sure if they still do this) and allow you to change it within 72 hours or whatever. I never changed the name, and ended up with an account called guest5927043 or something along those lines. A year or two ago I contacted player support asking if they could change my name since I missed the deadline, but they said they wouldn't allow it. I feel like player support were a lot more friendly when I got my named changed a long time ago. It also helped that my email address at the time was the same as my Habbo name, and they were all about security and not giving out your information back then. That said, I vaguely remember trying to get my name changed going back even further, but I never received a reply. It was only when 0rca joined the player support team that they got back to me. It's a shame there's nobody like her on the team anymore. Habbo is a bit faceless these days.Quote:

Yeah I don't mind mine! It's similar to my real name Samantha > Samanfa.
Yes because Zak is what everyone calls me lol
I don't like my name and I use my other character taylovesoreo when I roleplay
I'm not the biggest fan of my Habbo name but it's stuck. I don't think there's any point now to change it. Everyone on Habbo/Habbox knows me as Mikey even though no one in outside Habbo/Habbox calls me it.
Who knows I might change my forum name to Michael and creep everyone out. ;)
I like mine but i've started to use just Daim everywhere else so it kind of bothers me now :P
I signed up for habbo with facebook and they gave me josh9507
i would have went tripjay
Never wanted anything else so yeah no complaints
I am very pleased with my Habbo name. I made different avatars with different names but Pretty Loven always stuck with me.
The name is one of the first username I ever created on a social site. {For Habbo was the first website I ever joined at that time in 2008} So my username has a lot of history. LOL.
Update: ProbablyLucas is way better than Lucas32145, then, yes, I'm very well satisfied now! Furniture-free account, yes, but still good-lookin
Ah, I remember my classic thread (from when I was like fourteen, apparently couldn't spell, and put all my posts in bold) where I noticed hundreds of inactive and unused accounts were deleted, and everyone started grabbing up loads of 'rare' names. Really I should have made a thread asking what Habbo name people would want if they could have anything, and then slide in a little later saying; "Well, as chance would have it, I have come into possession of that name..." People got some really goods ones!
Unless I'm terribly mistaken, that merger of several hotels that happened made some very interesting combinations of nicknames available, such as though be fair to the new round of newbies they imagined would appear after the merger, or whateverQuote:

If the insight of playing a foreign MMO had popped into my head just a few days before August 2011, I would be able to call myself LUCAS/Lucas/LuCaS/lucas now... not ProbablyLucas, or any of its variations, even though it is not that bad, heh. Just imagine that
The purpose of my username was so that other people who live in Canberra can identify that I also live there too :) Lanyon is a district that contains 3 suburbs in the southernmost part of Canberra.

Mine’s nooby - madison0442 - but I used my facebook. It can be good for tricking ppl for them to think I’m a noob! ;P
*Is forever Stoney* :(
Honestly I wish I picked something different. I could have just named myself Dave or something buuuuuut noooo
