    Hi Maria!
    Like others said, I’ll miss Smorty. But it doesn’t matter in the end, because you’re still the same wonderful person and you should have the name that you want :)
    But I never associated your old name with “smarty” though. Sorry to hear that you had to deal with that.

    Tis unfortunate that people conflated your former name with ‘smarty’, if anything smorty was a good subversion of that. You are a cool and special peep, in the best way.

    Anyways, excited for all the future Maria memes! :3

    I feel bad because I pointed out that you were a smarty! I swear it was because of your qwenposts, not your username! XD

    Very pretty name!

    I though the username was something like “It’s Morty” but in a cute way.

    Or are you saying that you dislike people mistyping your username as smarty? Makes sense that it makes you feel as pretentious.

    Have fun Maria!

    Cute name! Don’t think I’ll have any trouble recognizing you whatever the name says, your style is very distinctive and funny. And I won’t call you smarty for picking a good name, hehe… You’re a li’l dummy, maria!!

    Edit: Do you care about the capital letter on your name? You don’t use them at all, but now I’m not sure if it’s part of the name or if I’m free to capitalize however I like.

      oh - hehehee yea------

      i jus dun use any capitals anywhere in the post- so feel free to write how u feel it looks best ~ <3

      also - dummy??? aaaaaaaaa >o< (im not actulli upset btw <3 )

      the main reason i switched is cuz of the peeps callin me smarty, and som evn said that they assumed the name was meant to be a spin on smarty… which… yea no - i dun like the idea of peeps thinkin im tryin to imply im soooo smart with my name… yea naw - thats like - pretentious n uncomf. thads like naming urself einstein. dun like that idea…

      so now its fine when peeps say it - cuz i kno that peeps jus say it cuz they mean it, not cuz they look at the name n go “heheheheehehheehehheeee, so funi, imma put smarty cuz hihieheihi”

      yea-- thads what im feelin ~ ~ ~
