Reason: I would like to have the same username on all the different wikis and forums I signed up to, but the name THX-1138 4EB isn't usable/available on some of these sites. This is why I decided to change it to SwissTHX11384EB on all of them since it only uses letters and numbers and isn't used anywhere.

I wanted to respond to this but my account was blocked before I was able. Firstly to say I am not sure about the comment regarding being careful of the new username being my real name- it isn't. However as my account was blocked I am not sure what to do, and even if changing my username is worthwhile. Thanks for your help.
Reason: Conflict of Interest

Bureaucrat note: Is this a
request for courtesy vanishing—meaning you intend never to edit the English Wikipedia again—or are you just wanting to abandon this account? Please note that returning after exercising courtesy vanishing may be met with automatic relinking of the new account with the old one. If you are just interested in retiring, an extended vacation, or are considering a
clean start in the future, placing {{
retired}} on your user and/or talk page(s) and abandoning the account is the better option. ···
