Haha, no. I picked Gorman just as a quirky handle; it doesn't suit me. Besides, I like my real nick-name (a shortened form of my legal name) well enough, once I changed the spelling.
Might be fun to use it as a take-out order name, though! "Hummus sandwich for...Gormanghaste?"

No, but Snowy is the 'shortened' version of my normal username, which is Evie Snow, and I would totally change my name to Evie. (:

My RL name is rather plain and too many people have it. But, its mine. I like my forum name quite a bit, especially for what it means. But, I wouldn't change my name to it. Though, I really do wish my parents had given me my middle name as my first name. I tried switching to it once, as a teen. But I and everyone else kept forgetting XD

Probably not. Although Niabi is a kick-ass name in its own right, I wouldn't give up the name I already have for it. Guess I'll just stick with plain ol' Jennifer instead

I would love to have Tsiya as my RL name. Nobody would be able to pronounce it correctly, but I can live with that. It's actually Cherokee for otter, which is the animal I try to model myself after. When I was a pre-teen, there were a ton of Lisas, and as my parents were sci fi/fantasy fans, I had access to the Pern books at a young age. I wanted to change my name to Lessa so bad. And ride a dragon, but that's another story!
