What's In A Name - Everything
All payments and attendance are linked to your Meetup Name. Organizers do not have your full name in their records. We only have your Meetup Name, nothing else. Maybe you can be distinguished by your photo (facial scars, a nose ring, or an eye patch helps) or other part of your profile, maybe not.
Unless your name is like Rumpelstiltskin, you need to make your name unique for Meetup so you can be identified. I can not readily distinguish one Carolyn or one Mike from another. You should also be concerned, because someone else can use your identity.
To change your Meetup username go to any Meetup.com site like hikingaroundphilly.com. At the top right click ACCOUNT. (Your ACCOUNT displays on every page in Meetup.com)
Under 'Your Account' the first listing on the left side of the page is 'Name', and to the right the 'change' link. Click 'change' and add one or more letters.
Thank you and I appreciate the new folks who sign up with a unique name and other folks who go back to make his/her meetup name unique.
