Name Calling

I saw a thread called “Changing Usernames”
It got me to thinking, it looks like there are a great deal of forum members who didn’t like their username, so they did something about it.
I started wondering about the people that hadn’t, and of course that thought branched out.
How many people like their username, on a scale of 1-10?
Would you consider changing your username? If so, to what?
How do you like other usernames? Do you have any favorites that just seem like awesome, or ultra interesting usernames ?
I am certainly not fishing for a compliment, because I really like my username. But I have considered changing it. If I did change it, my first inclination would be MB3timer!!!

I am sticking with "W205C43PFL" until I change my car, which won't take long

Mercedes C250 Coupe
My username reflects appreciation for the other German car in our garage.
My wife: beautiful little silver C250 coupe.
Me: VW 1.4L 5M Jetta which VOA gifted to me during the emissions outrage.

The gearbox synchros, the light clutch takeup + the shift lever ergonomics = my username(ezshift).................

Ciao!

Yes, just a subtle way of saying this is my 2nd MB. Actually I am on my 3rd, but my 1st I didn’t even own for a year.
