Actually i been wonder we are all given with name but why most of us wanna use nickname when we play online games or here in mylot??? I think maybe most of us have same name so it would be confusing??? or its was because to protect ourselve or people are shy to review their name?? What do you think??

Hi snpyvin,
We all use nickname because it is a lot safer and for protection from hackers, if people wants to tell you their real name they will priavatley sent it to you, and to have nicknames is that no one else can have the name as yourself.

There is something very liberating about using a sign on name instead of our real name when we go online. Since we are for the most part talking to people we have never met and probably never will we need to protect ourselves. There is so much crime being committed by predators online and by people who steal identities that we should always be cautious about revealing who we really are.
