Changing my caching name

[+emmieo]

My husband wants to add his caching name to my account name so that we are a "team".

We usually cache together anyways and he does not log many of his finds separately anymore.

How do I change my name to include his?

I do not want my total of cache finds to disappear.

Changing your name won't void any of your finds. But adding him won't automatically add his finds, either.

 

If there are any finds that he had without you that you two want to add to this account, you can backdate your log, but I would recommend explaining the team merger in your "found it" log.

You can change the name of the account to reflect that it's a family account, but you can't have the two accounts combined. If your husband wants any to add any finds he found on his own to the joint account he will need relog them. Its a good practice to mention why it is being relogged under a new account because the CO won't find the new account name in the logbook
