Bureaucrat note: You've had your account for about a month and a half. If you are wanting to change your name every couple months, that's not going to happen. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:16, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Clerk note: It's a clever anagram of your current user name but your requested user name is not appropriate. Sexually explicit inuendo/propositions/declarations would fall under the offensive and disruptive criteria of the user name policy. If you have some reason for changing it please supply that reason along with an acceptable new name. As Joe said user names are not changed every 6 weeks when you think of a more witty name. delirious & lost ☯ ~hugs~ 12:17, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

SoxBot Beta has evaluated this request, and a problem(s) was found. Target username exists, and it has edits, deleted edits, and/or log edits. SoxBot (talk) 20:17, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
Bureaucrat note: The requested username is already registered; see Special:CentralAuth. However, as this requested account has made no edits, it meets the criteria for being usurped; if you are an established user and wish to usurp it, please read and follow the process at m:Steward requests/Username changes. If you do not wish to usurp the username, please choose another name to be renamed to. Please note, however, that you should choose a username which does not give the appearance of promoting a particular topic. "USC2010", given the article you've been editing, gives the appearance that you are representing the Union Soccer Club in some fashion, and that is specifically prohibited in the username policy. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 21:00, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
