Our orange tiger facility replaced the whim and desire a new name. With feline roommate can this be done so, for they not listen to anyway. The official name is Carlos, but he is greeted with Kitusan, Finchosan, Br'sr, etc.
Years ago I once read a book about the Australian aborigines, "The Dream Catcher" by Marlo Morgan. Throughout the story, an American Traveler made with a group of Aboriginal people on a so-called Walkabout, a six-month trek through the red scenery down under. On this journey, the reader learns with the walkers a change in perspective on life. In the end, nothing is as it was the beginning of the arduous and eventful journey.
The indigenous people see life in cycles. Each cycle brings new aspects of knowledge, every aspect changed man. This change is mediated by a new name. At that time this concept for me was totally alien and incomprehensible. How should this work? Until then, I assumed that a person has a name like a buoy on the ocean. Indisputable, unchangeable on the waves of life.
So much different from the old cultures are the cultures in the digital network is not apparent. We also give us new names, at regular intervals is used or when the required already by another user. Different platforms, different versions of a person: alphanumeric identification and designation, binary identification, at least 6 characters, no special characters.
