I don’t think they’d care.
I wish I could be so lucky.

Assuming you're American, based on your username and instance. Hope that helps.
I'd imagine that mine would end up like royal names, I'm the weirdest cunt, my child would be the 2nd weirdest cunt and so on

Well, they don't hate me, but they do get tired of French people sounding out our shared username and then making jokes about it.
Dude, you misspelled your name it should be: "Qu'est-ce que c'est?" 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🫡 * in a very arrogant French accent*
Le plus drôle c'est que je parle français. Très amusant, n'est-ce pas?

They would probably find it pretty cringe
Think about it though. In like 100 years, the irony will wear off, and you'll have Millers, Carpenters, Smiths, and fucking Gigachads. It'd work, it just might take awhile.
You changed your name to latrine?
It used to be shithouse.
Good change!
Moderately irritated by having to explain "it's literally j j j all js like the word all J's but not this part" all the time

With normal letters or forever with the goofy ones? 🤔
Definitely goofy.
They'll have to type out the unicode galaxy on every form.
It's reasonably acceptable I guess, what people would hate me for is making jokes about getting a gnu name...
My kid would genuinely love it, it's right up his alley in terms of humor. My sense of humor is generally quite a bit darker, but I thought of it and it made me chuckle so I used it.
I just asked him what he thought of the username pooptart and he started giggling and went on an ADHD fueled set of concepts that ended with "what if you pooped a car?" But by then my own ADHD was only barely listening.
"No, that was not Zathras, that was Zathras. There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. Slight differences in how you pronounce. Zathràs, Zathrás, Zathrâs.. You are seeing now?"
Babylon 5
Could go either way: Good sense of humor but it could still be a problem when it comes to being professional.
Imagine getting terrible medical news from a Dr. Fartswithanaccent.
I don't have kids, but I imagine they'd be pissed to have to write out such a long name: Jennifer Grasshopper_Mouse? That shit would go aaaaall the way across the page.

I get lots of compliments on my username. Came up with it in the 90s and I feel like it aged well.
It is the word for little bat in my language, so I'm good.
Ahhhhhhh, they won't know any difference.
This is basically what happened in the Netherlands in the past.
I once met a woman whose family name was Boschpijper. Bosch means bush and pijper means dicksucker.
Those nicknames were kind of a joke, but then they followed in official records, but nobody cared. Then, after some generations of them having been written down, they were suddenly something important. And now the family of Boschpijpers have carried their name with pride for several centuries.

The prophecy will come true and they'll die in the next Great Depression, aka, the "Big Sad", so yes they'll hate me. Or maybe if they like dark humor / are nihilist, they'll quite enjoy the username because at least the death would be a "username checks out" moment.
Could be worse I guess, right /u/SatansMaggotyCumFart
She would love it
Having the name "to melt" in their native language is not the worst
They wonder whether I shagged a devil or one of my ancestors did
Mediocre audio sound quality compared to better codecs out there, but works on almost anything and the patents are expired.
Well, I'm gonna have to brush up on my Metroid lore.
hopefully they like dead things
they're the ones who have killed me.
I've used this name in public as a new identity. I think once my kids know i used it as a form of self identity, they'd either partially adopt it or choose their own name as well.
Probably a bit weird, but it could have been much worse
They're cool with it.
