Is there something wrong with my username?

Several people have told me to change my username and “have some dignity”. Is my username bad, or are those people just being rude?

Aren't 'Taters' just potatoes?

I simply thought you must like potatoes! 😂

Maybe in different parts of the world it means something rude like very large genitals or even just a swear word. 🤔

I just used it because it was an old nickname from my grandfather.

Just ignore them. If it was offensive the Mods would have told you. On a site with over 200 million members there is always somebody who will be offended when the vast majority aren't.

I'd have a problem with you calling yourself 'boy', if anything... but I don't even have a problem with that.

Thanks! 😊

What’s wrong with “boy”

Just that it has a history of seeming disrespectful, belittling, when used to describe a grown man...
