A Name People Will Remember

Friends remember names, so choose one you'll be happy to keep. Simple and readable works best. Something linked to a hobby or interest gives new people a natural first question. Keep your full name, workplace and home town out of it, even in a friendly room.

You can use 3 to 20 letters, numbers or underscores. If you plan to return, a free account is worth it, because it stops someone else taking the name your new friends know. It also keeps your name in the free chat online room.

Come back at roughly the same time each visit. That's how regulars find each other, here and in chat with strangers.

Like all our friendship chat, this room is free for everyone. Keep personal details private and use the block and report buttons if anyone bothers you.
