Help - I need a new name here - SarahJese is part of my name and I need something that is a little bit more vague - VagueSarah? SarahVague? Nutty is already taken so there goes that one - lol!
ETA - there are some stories I just don't want to tell and many things I don't want to say when I could be discovered. Cool with any of you know who I am, etc but prefer ffor it not to be searchable.

Is there a name you've always liked? Is there a fictional character you're fond of?

How about just using your initials with some numbers. SJ2014 - or something like that. Of course, now I'm all curious about what you did.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

How about Sahara, there's nothing in the member list on that one. But all your changing is your Display Name, the Username will still be sarahjese. To change that you would have to delete your account and come back in a couple weeks as someone completely new. And you couldn't link up to your old posts.

Thanks - I need to check on that - I bet Moon could help me also - once I know who I wish to become I will PM her.
What concerns me is that this pops up when I Google myself - I was alone the other night - oh yeah, I live alone, lol - even the dog was outside - I took advantage of the situation and I Googled myself - now all of you know what kind of person I am - I Google myself. Sorry to - that just cracks me up - I have always wanted to used that Smiley and never have until now - plus the idea of Googling myself sounds so junior-high-school-giggles funny that I can't stop laughing about it.
I have done this every 3 months or so, just to see what is out there for years - even going back to the old search engines. Since I finally consider myself retired, about 6 months ago I stopped being as careful as I was never to let anything post on me anywhere. At the end of June I am shutting it back down and seeing how long it takes to clear up - if I ever can> I know - I am feeling better and getting bored.
Oh, and FYI the most interesting thing I have ever found out on-line is that I am deceased - why is still out there.

Well if your dead then a new identity is in order.

Sugi - that ws me the first week I saw it - I have to tell you though my some of my friends were disappointingly down on the topic of me being deceased online - I figured no taxes, no robo-calls, no bills - unfortunately still have all 3 plus ...

For absolute certainty, leave names, initials, or circular references to locations or even interests out or at a minimum.
You could be "SoNotDeceased". You could be "Sparkles&Jams" (keeps the initials but covertly). Or you could go another way entirely with something very random like "GhostBat" or RedRoses?
Your own creativity is your limit. From a technical perspective though, I'm not sure whether your true username can be modified. You might have to delete and start over.

Starfish. That couldn't be tied back to you at all and seems pretty neutral.
Or what about something for Tara? Tara's mom? Mom of T-Dog?

How about a favorite song or something? The google search for that would bury you under a million other links

I like it - could also be Sarah's Not Dead - yet! lol
I really like the tagline - it is so seldom that one can use a quote like that!
