That's precisely the problem. I started out my internet life with a "preferred" common login name. But as my sites multiplied, it was already taken . . . and my 2nd version of it was already taken . . . so I have out 5 different versions, never really sure which matches which site.
Don't they give us unique program numbers for a reason? Just use that as the login.
