Business name different from domain name?

I need social skills.

No offence taken. So do I get a name?

 

[Aquarium Dreams]

Apologies all around for sullying the board with this nonsense.

I think I'll start making liberal use of smileys so everyone will know when I'm joking and/or not trying to be a jerk.

Oh, and I actually am shy. You can call me S or Ess if you like.

keep them the same or somewhat the same. you dont want people saying "hey you should check out this great photographer, his name was jack johnson, but I dont remember his website, just search for it" because if your website is called something like I Take Pictures they are never going to find you from your name.

I agree... and I'll go a step further and wonder aloud why people use cutesy names for their avatar on forums. Using the logic of wanting your name to be associated with your pictures/website, etc., wouldn't it make sense just to have your username be your actual name?

Just a thought.

Different strokes, as they say.

as far as user names, I use my AIM screen name, my email address, and my screen name here is the same as on any other forum, just to keep things consistant. Now if I were a professional I would probably use my full name so I can market better.

I think that using you name adds to your credibility.

I agree with others that the full word "Photography" can mean a long address.
