Qwikstreet
Liking YTtalk
This is for my existing gaming channel as well as other online gaming personas like Twitch etc. For well over 20 years I've been using the same online name for all my platforms and social media. (aka Qwikstreet) I've been wondering if I should push towards a different name for a number of reasons when it comes down to stuff like my YT channel. I am wondering if pushing more towards my real first name is the route to go and curious on your thoughts. My channel and following across the different environments is small.
Some reasons:
1. I've been mostly doing sim racing where the games, communities, and leagues use real life names. So even if I stream or post content as Qwikstreet my Eddie F******* appears somewhere during the races.
2. I've been slowly getting involved in some sim racing projects that will make my real name a little more public. Ones where I may need to give out social media information and curious if its easier to do some variant of Eddie instead of reminding people how to correctly/incorrectly spell qwik - street.
3. I mainly play racing or simulation games so the days of being a FPS worthy opponent and needing a cool YourMomma1337 username is no longer needed.
4. I'm getting too old to be this quick/qwik...
