Comment: It may be possible to create a
Doppelganger account for this purpose though, if you wish an ease-to-type latin name. In that case the following should be done:
Create a new account and redirect its user and talk pages to your main account.
Add a notice on your main account that the new account is yours, so to avoid
sockpuppetry issues.
Update your main accounts signature, so that it will display the new account name (You could also link to the second account directly, but since its just a redirect it will end up on your talk page anyway).
That way you will keep your old account and cross-wiki sul, while also allowing other users to easily type your user name in the search window. Do keep in mind that non-latin usernames are also allowed so there is no problem keeping your current name.

Clerk note: If you are not being renamed on Korean Wikipedia i strongly recommend against this rename. Non-Latin characters have been welcome on English Wikipedia for a few years now (we were among the last to do so). You have over 4000 edits on Korean Wikipedia. Changing your user name here will break your

Comment: It may be possible to create a
Doppelganger account for this purpose though, if you wish an ease-to-type latin name. In that case the following should be done:
Create a new account and redirect its user and talk pages to your main account.
Add a notice on your main account that the new account is yours, so to avoid
sockpuppetry issues.
Update your main accounts signature, so that it will display the new account name (You could also link to the second account directly, but since its just a redirect it will end up on your talk page anyway).
That way you will keep your old account and cross-wiki sul, while also allowing other users to easily type your user name in the search window. Do keep in mind that non-latin usernames are also allowed so there is no problem keeping your current name.

Somewhat off topic, but why not edonga? (for the rest of you the romanisation of his user name :P) NativeForeignerTalk/Contribs 21:18, 14 July 2010 (UTC)reply
'Nizgoon' is my other nickname in Korean websites. And I wouldn't "romanise" the original name because '이동아' is my real name and if I romanise it, it would be mis-pronounced (e.g. e-don-ga). --

You could post a request from the Bartimi account to be renamed to something else, then we could proceed with this rename. –
