Okay, considering your tolerance of Drolsi Susej (but not Jesus is Lord), how would you feel about someone calling himself Uoy Kcuf?
Why does the meaning of a username matter? If someone called themself Uoy Kcuf, or, for that matter, Fuck You, and they made good edits, why do something like forcing a name change that would deter them from using Wikipedia? LDan
Because people with provocative names like that usually do it for shock value and do not make valuable edits. In addition, other people may be deterred from using Wikipedia if they found out that the community tolerated offensive user names.
