Username Stories!🌞

Hiya everyone, I hope this new month brings each one of us lots of peace and joy!💖

Okie I'll try not to blabber too much and come straight to the point! xD 

Soooo, we know that when we sign up on 7 cups, we are assigned an auto-generated username because anonymity first hehe. 

And of course, we can change our username from our settings page, for upto first 2 weeks and then after filling a form and providing a valid reason. Which is how there's so many people here who have come up with almost random looking words from the English language, that when put together bring us a spectacular "username", which is often synonymous to their personality, and of course, a major part of our identity here at 7 cups. 

Purely an observation, and of course, it could've been deeply impacted by the "roles" each account plays here, "listeners" on here to listen to people, support and be an encouraging presence reigniting hope for those that need it, have a more "upbeat" sorta username, usually. (Usually being the keyword)

On the other hand, I notice some "member" account usernames that aren't as "upbeat" sounding, which also makes complete sense because on our member account, we are likely more vulnerable and embracing of the not-so-happy-and-okay-us too. (Again, usually being the keyword, and a personal observation entirely)

Indeed, there's extremes but then there's also a broad spectrum, and we are all spread out on it embracing our unique-ness and authenticity, describing it as how we see it and are comfortable with. 🌞 I love coming across different usernames that attempt to personate the person behind the screen in one or more ways, whatever way it speaks to *them*. To each their own, always!

However, yes it makes me wonder how our usernames shape up our identity here, how we see ourselves and also for others and how we'd like them to see us too.

A username speaks a lot about the person, I feel, the more-thought-out ones, specially. Ones with some context and with a backstory!

(I tried xD but fortunately, I am me and I'll complete the entire story even after saying "long story short"~ ooh and sometimes even with sub-plots and individual character-development arcs 🤣)

Alrighty, now some questions to get your brain-juices flowing- 

🌞 What does your username mean? Is there a backstory, you'd like to share?

🌞 If you had an alternate username or could change your username to something else more inclined towards the *current you*, what would you keep it as? Why?

🌞 What's the most captivating username you've come across here? (Yes please, you can tag them by putting an "@" sign before their name) What do you like about it?

🌞 A Gift for youuu: Tag 3 of your peers here and share an alternate username for them, that you feel fits them most. (Needless to say, but we practice extra caution lol, sooo, ~ Appropriate Language Only, *please*) Brownie points if you can be a little descriptive and share "why" do you feel it fits them.

I'd love to hear from everyone coming across this.💖
