Thinking about making a new channel

Don't do it. Especially with the integration between all the google products, the only thing you wont be able to change is the domain url. You'll be able to show how it's displayed as comments, subscriber feeds, video authors etc. While it won't hurt you as much as others say (you will lose a ton of subs, but the ones that come over are going to be your active subs anyways) don't change your name unless you have a clear reason to, and just because doesn't count.
 
I would love to change my name.. and you can.. but your URL will be the same. (nikkitits07) <---you see what i mean.. but people can easily remember that name .. but if you look at my channel it actually says MANIC. if you link your account to google+ it allows you to change your name. But not your URl. this way you can change up your name.. and tell your current subscribers about the change and start fresh .. with out COMPLETELY starting fresh =)

You are right! With the right name it will be better in the long run. If you really hate your name then by all means change it. Better being branded by something you love rather than having to be branded by something you do not like. It is your choice though :)

So i've been using my Danomitism channel since august and I kinda want to make a new channel and change my name because i havent been really fond of it. I have 2285 subscribers on danomitism right now but i want your advice, should i go ahead and make a replacement channel?

yeah I just split off into new channels and like... people aren't coming over man LOL. I have almost 800 subs, I've posted a bulletin, I've put it in my new video, I've tagged people and mentioned it on this forum, and I've got like 10 subs on the new channels. Fortunately I'm not starting over, Im just splitting off a different style of mine into the two new channels so if they don't grow too quickly it's not that big a deal but for you to actually start OVER at that size? It'd be like throwing all your work down the drain man.

I just started a whole new channel last month as my old got accidentally deleted. Days later, i got my old channel back (thank the lord) and i still havent regretted launching my new channel. A fresh start is a pain in the a** but im so ready for the challenge. I get my views an right now thats all i care about.

A fresh start is always nice but do what you think is best for yourself. If you do decide to launch a whole new channel, make sure you leave 1 last video on your current channel on whats going on. Good luck man. :)
