Which heroes do you think have outgrown their current monikers and it would be better for them if they adopted a new superhero identity, like dick grayson did when he went from robin to nightwing ?

TG, CM is commenting on the misspelling of Damian’s name.
Sorry, my bad. I thought Cm was suggesting that Damian's moniker changed.
Well that was a hilarious read regardless. My apologies brother.
I think that the green lanterns should get special names. Like, wheres the variety people?
Definitely tim drake, he’s been robin for almost over 30 years with a few name changes every now and then just to change it back 💀, they need to just find something for him and stick to it
@WolverinesTiddies, isn't sharing the same mantle the point of Green Lantern Corps?
I know, its just confusing when they mention Green Lantern, like, which one?
Any of them? If you have problem with differentiating them, all Green Lanterns have Sectors and planets they're responsible for. But they have always been a Corps, i.e. a group of people (except for Alan Scott because of Starheart).
In older comics, Green Lanterns used to call each other "Green Lantern" instead of using proper names. But back then there weren't many alien GLs, and the occasions where they met were rare. Comics during those years featured Hal Jordan almost exclusively.
When other characters mention Green Lantern in other series, the context of the stories can tell you what character they are referring to, like a GL that appeared recently in that series, or the GL that is a member of a superteam (Justice League, Titans, etc.).
Tim Drake, probably. I don’t HATE Red Robin, and I don’t generally have a problem with multiple characters named the same thing, so 2 Robins isn’t weirder than 2 Batgirls… though I think it would make sense to have a way to differentiate when talking over communications devices (but, also, see “The Flash”… no, I don’t count the Green Lanterns because that’s more if a title than a name… and aside from a couple Earth GLs that actually maintain secret identities, it works more like “Green Lantern Stewart” or “Lantern Kilowog”…).
Still, when the whole “Drake” fiasco came up, I gave it some thought and realized, no one is using Flamebird right now. Bette moved on to Hawkfire. Thara may or may not be in continuity. Kara isn’t using it. Jimmy Olsen isn’t using it. The original kryptonian hero isn’t around to lay claim to it. It actually makes sense to go from Red Robin to Flamebird as they kind of share a theme. It works as a callback to his old car, the Redbird. It has added bonuses of connecting him to Clark and Connor’s history, as well as connecting him to Dick’s well-established hero identity. And while it’s probably slightly less cool than “Nightwing”, it’s a name he could kind of establish as his own…?
Just a thought…
What do you think?
