John,

Is there a way to change the nickname without changing the rest of the registration? Currently the change requires new registration.

Sometime a person may get tired of the nickname or it may be inappropriate type or whatever.

Right now, the only way to change screen names is to ask Jim Robinson. In the future, changing screen names will be as easy as filling in a field.

Just to note about the future ability: all past screen names will be listed in your profile, along with the range of dates the screen name was in use. And, for X (7-30?) number of days after the name change, your "former" will be printed next to your current screen name. That will be done to discourage people from "hit and runs".
