 * Secularstudents does not represent the name of any company/organization/etc. If the username was "SecularStudentAlliance", then it would represent the name of the organization. User:Secularstudents is still good. For example, many atheistic organizations simply call themselves "rationalists" or "freethinkers". That would not bar a user from choosing the username "rationalists" or "freethinkers". Furthermore, since Secularstudents does not have "Alliance", it does not indicate that they are promoting the organization. In this case, it would not really be any different than if the user had chosen the username "Atheiststudents". Finally, there's no real indication that it's being used by multiple people. The fact that Secularstudents appears to be plural could simply indicate that the user appreciates secular students. Many people choose names based on things they appreciate (for example, if you appreciate horses, you might go with the username I dream of horses). There is ultimately nothing wrong with this username. Knowledge Battle 00:59, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
