So how did you choose yours? (username that is!)

[NewMB]

Because I bought my first new MB in 2006 - hence the name, NewMB.

 

[renault12ts]

[del320]

My real name, influenced also by the fact there are so many Charles Morgans on Google (an author, prominent civil rights lawyer, eponymous car firm MD, a whaling ship (oh the irony), an estate agent, a property scammer, a dubious racing tipster, and an Inverness fashion house (oh, even more irony) among many others, that it gives me as much anonymity online as a made up name.

Unfortunately, that is singularly untrue...

[Charles Morgan]

Unfortunately, that is singularly untrue...

More of a throwaway line than a statement of fact del320, which you are right to pick up. Having seen recently on a wine forum how easy it was to identify all the principals behind a wine investment company of dubious status, I think it very straightforward. However, on the two occasions (of which I am aware) my identity has been stolen, both came from me stupidly not shredding my name and address on envelopes, from which they were able to set up bank accounts and attempt to contract for a mobile phone.

To word it differently, I am very comfortable just being me online.
