When I first joined Gransnet, almost at the beginning, I had a different name - Teetime - I'm a golfer I thought it was funny ! After several years I had a break and came back as Big Bertha - another golfing reference - its a club but now I have lost weight and feel I would like a less cumbersome name. Any thoughts about this and how can I do this please?
kittylester I used to pretend my name was Nicola when I was young because I thought my real name was boring. For some reason Nicola appealed to me, sporty but feminine! There were five of us with the same name in my year at school.
Iβd like to change my name too. I became Sadgrandma during lockdown when I was desperately unhappy at not being able to see my little granddaughter who we had been looking after two days a week. Of course I see her regularly now as we pick her up from school a couple of days a week and often have her in the holidays. So I might disappear soon.
Hi BigBertha Iβd follow GriedGreenToms advice and report your post with a request to gnhq for advice. Iβm well beyond 64 but keep my original name. Not least because of my legendary tech skills

BlueBelle / Iβm afraid Iβm using my phone not iPad. The result is I appear even more garbled than usual. Itβs a combination of fat fingers, not reading before posting but worse - bliddy predictive texts
