Hi Wendy, The IRC nickname is ephemeral unless you register it with your email. You can choose whatever name you want. If it is taken already by someone else, it will add _ or a number at the end. While you are on IRC, you can also change your nickname to something else like from wendyr to

Register your IRC name! It may be a pita, but it is less of a pita than losing it to someone who wants to pretend to be you. Note that anyone can use your name when you are not there, so this is not a perfect system, but you can kick them off when you come online. You can also just leave your

Hi Wendy, The typical train of thought is that your IRC nick is the same one you would apply in other social spheres. Since most people know me from Twitter, and my nick there is @pnkrcklibrarian, for this particular IRC server, that is what I went with. A good rule of thumb is to be

If you decide you'll be hanging out on #libtechwomen a lot (or on irc.freenode.net in general), it might be a good idea to register your nick as explained here http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration because the short answer is, sometimes people are assholes. Another important

You can also choose to anonymize yourself by choosing a nick that best represents something you're interested in or identify with that is not used on other social spheres. It really is completely up to you on what you feel most comfortable with and there is typically no hard/fast rules.
