Kitsune_rei, Imaginary Fox: on Names, and Identity.

I've been thinking a long time about changing my name. This would be a big change for me, since it would be changing my online identity. I use Kitsune_rei at so many sites. So many people know me by it. But it just keeps nagging at me that it doesn't quite fit me anymore ( Read more... )

I really like "Imaginary Fox." It definitely has a maturity to it that the other doesn't, not for any fault in the name "Kitsune Rei" but simply because names with Japanese in them are generally more of a fan girl thing.

An identity change can be nice! I've been "Selina Fox" since I was 15 (I'm nearly 30 now). I progressed through Silverblue Vixen, but then Krystal from Starfox came along (meh) so I went on to be Shinobi Foxgrrl when I joined Xbox Live, but I felt that was still too immature. Now I am Kunoichi Vixen which I like a lot more and feel suits me just right for who I am now.

I never really let go of my old identities, depending on how many acquaintances I kept from the times I used those names predominantly, but I think it's important to identify the way that you feel suits you best. Good luck with everything!

PS. I really enjoy using WordPress but have never looked into linking a Twitter account to it. ^^
