Display Name History

[User 180565 is taking donation]

I got this idea from another forum software, I think it would be nice if we had a field in the profile area where it shows what users have changed their names to in the past. This way if an older user comes to a board and that person says they know them and they are under a different display name that user could just click on that field and it would show what usernames they have had in the past.


- Of course I'd like to see this as a user option meaning the user can choose to display this. I'd rather see it as a main feature other than a plug in.

I think this would be a very useful feature, so it'd be great if it could be implemented.
Perhaps just display the last 3 or 5 names though, not every single one. Though all could work, but as a "show more" option, similar to the notifications/activity tab.

This has been discussed at length here at PB HQ. Its something that a lot of people here would like to have or see happen, so its likely to happen at some point.

I think a simple scroll box (left to right for example) would be able to show every single name mentioned.
