So, apparently you can change your Pinterest username! I didn't really think about it when I signed up with my real name; I should have used my blog name, duh. Apparently early adopters got to pick whatever they wanted as a username, but now you are limited to 15 characters and they can't be "crazy".
What constitutes a "crazy" character, you may ask? Well, pretty much anything I tried to change my name to. Lisa C? "No crazy characters please." Mrs Trapped? Lisa @ Trapped? CRAZY. No matter that there are a million other users with names like Bob @ Your Blog Here. The @ symbol is now crazy.
Anyways, I changed my username to TINJ, although I think it shows up as Lisa (TINJ) whenever I pin something. If you're already following me, its changed automatically.
