Hello @amanda70,

Welcome to the forum! I’m Bry, one of the moderators and an Eclectic Witch. It’s very nice to meet you 😊

Names are powerful things. While we can’t always control what other people call us, we do have completely control over how we choose to call ourselves. And while every name has meaning, the names we choose are by far the most powerful.

On that note, you are free to choose the name you would like the community to call you. Feel free to pick something you are comfortable with personally, or perhaps a name that embodies your magickal practice (aka a [Magickal Name](https://forum.spells8.com/t/magickal-names-how-do-you-choose/501)) 🧙

You can change both your username and your account name by following the steps in this guide: [📛 How to Change Your Name and Username on Spells8](https://forum.spells8.com/t/how-to-change-your-name-and-username-on-spells8/18557)

If you need any help, just say the word!

Make yourself at home here. Blessed be ✨
