People had to look pretty hard for it to be that way. People need to learn how to have fun instead of being so absolutely politically correct. I AM A REDNECK. PROUD TO BE SO.

Why do you feel bullied out of your name? If you felt it was not offensive why not keep it? Why would you change your decision because a few people disagreed with it? Dont blame those who may have disliked your name for your decision. Bottom line is anyone on a different team than you has absolutely no influence on your team. I find it petty for you to blame someone else for a decision that is up to your team. There was nothing wrong with presenting a way others could see your name. Did anyone flat out say that you cannot have that name?

Also Im not saying whether or not I liked the name, I just dont like your reaction when someone tries to HELP YOU.
