Name Change!
6 years ago
I've decided to change my name to Korozar! I've been thinking for months now that 'Project' is a bit of a strange name, and while it has a lot of history for me, I want to give my fursona a name that just sounds more... dragon-y!
I've managed to copy over all my favorites, watchers, and gallery. I've also deleted the gallery on the old account to not run afoul of FA's duplicate content policy.
I might as well share a little background on the old name while I'm at it though!
I've only been in the fandom for a year, but 10 or so years ago back in high school I created the first version of what would eventually be my fursona. I was trying out the trial for City of Villains for the second time. The first time I'd made some generic robot guy and got bored pretty fast. This time I spent some time in the costume creator just scrolling through all of the options, and found an awesome dragon head. I instantly fell in love with it and created an entire character around it. His name was Project X-593, hence the name Project for my fursona. He was originally all black, but I later added on red eyes, markings, and wings. You can see the latest version of his look here:

Unfortunately, the game shut down a few years ago, so I can't actually play the game as him anymore. Even so, I used the name Project X-593 everywhere I went online, I used screenshots of the character as my look, and I even recreated him wherever I could. Here's an example of that:

I was introduced to the fandom by a friend of mine who invited me to go to a few parties with other furries, and I eventually went to small local convention where I decided I'd join the fandom. My online identity was pretty much already a fursona to start with, so it was a trivially easy choice for me. I don't envy all the new furs who struggle to find their own fursonas!
The name 'Project' just didn't quite feel right as far as furry went though... The original Project X-593 was supposed to be some sort of science experiment run amok. For an MMO about supervillains, that's great. For a fursona though? Not so much, and the name 'Project' definitely implies that that's what he is when I'd rather that he just be a dragon straight up.
I spent a few hours coming up with pieces of names - syllables that sounded cool and dragon-y (Cor, Gar, Raz, zoth, kor, zel and so on). Then I started piecing them together into names. I came up with a bunch - Volozar, Vorathen, Rolezar etc. It was like taking on the job of the random name generator in an MMO, except with fewer nonsensical names.
One of the names that I came up with was Korozar. I like it. It sounds awesome, and it definitely suits a dragon, I can't find anyone else using the name (other than some obscure Russian youtuber), and people can call me 'Kor' or 'Koro' for short. It'll take some getting used to, but long term I think I'll be very happy with the name!
