Do you keep the same username on each forum?

I sometimes change. I was known as Winnie the Pooh once on an admin forum. That was to trick everyone though. XD I sometimes use Fluffy though... I have used GhostFace before but did not think much of it in the long run.

Optimus is also a good one.
 
I am using 2 or 3 username, I try to adapt my username to the forum I sign
 
I am know on all forums as either:

master412160
Max Pen
Sgt.walton.001
on 1 forum as webmaster412160
 
On sites I am active on I use this, if I do a post exchange I will use a different one along with a 10 minute email. If this one is taken I don't register on the site.
 
I mostly use the same name on many forums that I sign up with, simply because it's the easiest to remember. However, if that username is taken or if a forum in question has the stopforumspam plugin installed, then I'll gladly use an alternative. Like sometimes I'll use one of the very first usernames I ever had when joining up with forums, which in 2007 or 2008 it was Brian Fan, meaning that I am a fan of Brian Littrell of the Backstreet Boys. I do have some backup alternatives that I use as well, like:

Ashley.G.
Ash
Ashley1988
Ash1988

Basically just different variations of my first name. But I do like to use my first name whenever I register on a new site as much as possible.
 
I either go as Dy.namik or Jay. But it's usually been Dy.namik. I usually use Jay for my own forums.
 
I stay the same because then everyone knows me as one screen name.
 
I always use the same name....it's a good name 😉

I do have to use a slight variation once in a while though. It is surprising how many places I try to sign up and my name is already taken.
 
I usually try to stick to "Kaynil", I like people recognizing me, seeing old friends feels so good. I have registered in the past with different usernames but I usually end up asking them to change it to the usual username.

Currently I am "young Link" in some Nintendo Forum, and some friends from a FF forum used to know me as "Rinku", but I think that is about it.
 
I use McStormify everywhere. I don't want to be known as anything different.
 
Yes I keep this username, I find it easier using the same username then to have about 15 different usernames. Bad enough my passwords aren't the same and I have to remember which site is which password haha.
 
I have been sticking with Orion or Orion Corvus for the last couple of months however, at a time, I used to frequently alter my name as a way to express myself.
