I want to give everyone a heads up. I decided to change my username since vertigo didn’t have any significant meaning.

Daonnachd is Scots Gaelic for humanity (with a nuance of charity). It’s how we all should treat each other.

I might have to wait until I get home to fix my signature. Not sure I can do it on my phone.

yeah, I’ve been around a while. This thread is actually inspired by your announcement that you’d changed your name. Otherwise I may have just carried on, assuming people would recognise the bald head.

Forget about spelling it, how do I pronounce it? I'd really love to know, allways thought Gaelic writing was cool, but what a mouth full.

Cool name D!

I like it. Having a username with a meaning would definitely feel more signifcant. I often use a user name given to use as an undergrad at a university (not here though) The only significance mine has is it reminds me of a time when my eating disorder was at its worse. I should change those too, but then I constantly forget them. Probably not the safest things, but my passwords are all cryptic and not easy to guess (I use a password random generator). Also, though it is out there in places, my mother's maiden name (often asked for password help) is not at all easy.
