Ask Lemmy

I've used this name in public as a new identity. I think once my kids know i used it as a form of self identity, they'd either partially adopt it or choose their own name as well.

They're cool with it.

they're the ones who have killed me.

My kid would likely say I crushed it.

I think they would mainly hate it because it would infringe on their own self-identity. No one I know in real life knows my user name, and no one who knows my user name knows my irl identity. That would be the biggest problem.

Checked with my 15 year old daughter: 98% hate.

If they are at all aware of the world in which we live they would have fallen down the same path anyway.

So they’re hemi-semi-hemi-demigods?

I’m not sure mine would understand.

I think they could have worse

What kids?

That really depends on their gender and orientation. I assume straight daughters would not be happy.

Hope mine like shitty candy!

My kids call me Boursin Cheese because they couldn't pronounce my name (or chose not to)

They get what they give.

Everyone can finally choose "dr." option when filling out flight ticket forms guilt free and probably fly free on Canadia Airlines at least once.

Quite a bit, but it could be worse.

They're cool with it

Kids are probably going to make fun of the foot part. Teenage girls are going to ask my sons if the size matches other parts.

During early life, they'd like it. As teenagers they'd hate it. In their adult years they'd come back around to liking it again.

As long as I don't name them Steve then we're all good

My username is a variety of my name. So less annoyed than the kids of Ladiesman217.

They would be wondering whyiI haven't embraced the lifestyle, only adopted the name.

well, I'm snipped so that's not a problem, but if we decided to for some reason adopt, they probably wouldn't love it. I wonder if tabbed browsing would ever go away and it would be a surname based on something that everyone forgets (there are more obscure examples but for example Cooper, Cobbler, Fletcher, Bowyer, Tyler, Taylor, Brewster, etc.)

Eh, it's pretty descriptive of me but I wonder if my kids would be the same. They'll be monotheistic, most likely at least, but yappy/argumentative is not a given. 🤷

As long as they find their own pocket rocks, I think we're peachy.

Not bad…. Not bad

It's alright, I guess, except that nobody in the family (myself included) like singing.

Eh, unless they don't like cute stuff I don't think they'd care lol

They wouldn't hate me at all.

Probably slightly less than they already do.

I'd be in the center of an uproar.

Meh. It's no biggie.
