Name change PSA!

General
PSA: I’ll be changing my username on all social medias soon, but probably will purposely delay it a month or so, so that those who know me and friends can hear about it beforehand so they don’t think I disappeared or don’t know who I am and all that jazz, also to give people who don’t know time to hear about it before I make the change, to give fair warning ahead of time.
“But Somo! why a name change across all social media?”
Well, because ‘Somo Otora’ was never originally meant to personify me online, originally, it was the name given to the protagonist in a story i’m writing called “The Journey” (placeholder name until/if I find something better later on, just giving a name so i don’t have to constantly say “my story” etc, etc), so in other words, 'Somo Otora’ is not me, Somo Otora is a character I created, and I wish to finally move on from using it as the name to go by online, as I seek to create a new name for myself, that’s for me, and not based off a character I made, because if I did and kept it also as the name for my protagonist it’d give the impression it’s a self insertion, which it is not. That being said, name change , in maybe a month, I already have some ideas in mind, but i’m keeping the delay both to give others time to hear about this, and for me to take more time to consider my choices. Also said name will be for actually one character, but not a character involved in my story, more so a persona character, one to represent me, sorta like a mascot in a way. I’m sure you’ve all seen the art I did, but this is the most recent full-detail-and-colored piece (as of 3/22/18) of said persona character which is suppose to be me, whom will have the same name as the new name i choose
“I’ll miss the name Somo…"
I will too, I will too, however, it’s not gone completely, but just now returned to the character it was intended for from the beginning. Hopefully though, the new name i choose, whatever it may be, people will come to like it just as much, with each door closed, another opens. ♡
