I don’t think they’d care.
I wish I could be so lucky.

Assuming you're American, based on your username and instance. Hope that helps.
If my children are all psychopaths, they might actually appreciate a name like this.
They would probably find it pretty cringe
Think about it though. In like 100 years, the irony will wear off, and you'll have Millers, Carpenters, Smiths, and fucking Gigachads. It'd work, it just might take awhile.
Hey you kids, get off my WLAN!
If you’re still using some old and insecure encryption, you’re basically inviting the kids to practice their skills with your WLAN. If you notice that they’ve figured out how to crack WEP, it’s time to move on to WPA and see how long it takes them to find a way in.
It's reasonably acceptable I guess, what people would hate me for is making jokes about getting a gnu name...
You changed your name to latrine?
It used to be shithouse.
Good change!
Moderately irritated by having to explain "it's literally j j j all js like the word all J's but not this part" all the time

This is basically what happened in the Netherlands in the past.
I once met a woman whose family name was Boschpijper. Bosch means bush and pijper means dicksucker.
Those nicknames were kind of a joke, but then they followed in official records, but nobody cared. Then, after some generations of them having been written down, they were suddenly something important. And now the family of Boschpijpers have carried their name with pride for several centuries.

Not bad…. Not bad
"No, that was not Zathras, that was Zathras. There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. Slight differences in how you pronounce. Zathràs, Zathrás, Zathrâs.. You are seeing now?"
Babylon 5
My kid would genuinely love it, it's right up his alley in terms of humor. My sense of humor is generally quite a bit darker, but I thought of it and it made me chuckle so I used it.
I just asked him what he thought of the username pooptart and he started giggling and went on an ADHD fueled set of concepts that ended with "what if you pooped a car?" But by then my own ADHD was only barely listening.

With normal letters or forever with the goofy ones? 🤔
Definitely goofy.

Probably slightly less than they already do.
Could be worse I guess, right /u/SatansMaggotyCumFart
I don't have kids, but I imagine they'd be pissed to have to write out such a long name: Jennifer Grasshopper_Mouse? That shit would go aaaaall the way across the page.
My surname has 14 characters. My full name has 23. Forms suck.

I get lots of compliments on my username. Came up with it in the 90s and I feel like it aged well.
It is the word for little bat in my language, so I'm good.
Could go either way: Good sense of humor but it could still be a problem when it comes to being professional.
Imagine getting terrible medical news from a Dr. Fartswithanaccent.
Mediocre audio sound quality compared to better codecs out there, but works on almost anything and the patents are expired.
Having the name "to melt" in their native language is not the worst
She would love it
They wonder whether I shagged a devil or one of my ancestors did
Ahhhhhhh, they won't know any difference.
Everyone can finally choose "dr." option when filling out flight ticket forms guilt free and probably fly free on Canadia Airlines at least once.
The prophecy will come true and they'll die in the next Great Depression, aka, the "Big Sad", so yes they'll hate me. Or maybe if they like dark humor / are nihilist, they'll quite enjoy the username because at least the death would be a "username checks out" moment.
Well, I'm gonna have to brush up on my Metroid lore.
hopefully they like dead things
They're cool with it.
