Well....
Without visuals on the internet, a name is a way of friends knowing who you are. In real life your face and your voice can identify you, but on the internet, your screen name identifies you as no one but you, Rod.
If you change names, and tell people, those who see the name change will be able to "see" you. But those who miss the name change won't get the chance to say "Hey, 64bowtie! It's good to see Rod again. I wonder how he's doing?"
P.S. It's good to see you again, Rod. How are you doing?
