We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
He should always have been named Buttz anyway. It really hits all the nuances of what the character has to offer.
Dan Didio, please look forward to my petition.

Lol this is dumb. Not changing his name; that's whatever and likely won't even stick past a year, if that.
No what's dumb is people making such a big deal out of something so small and silly. I know making fun of DC is the cool thing to do these days, but this is a reach guys. lol

I don't think it's a huge deal but I do think it's kind of a fucked up thing to attempt because superheroes, for all their superheroics, are supposed to be relatable. They're supposed to have flaws of all kinds, which might include having a goofy real name... if you can even call that a flaw. It's just a little something that real people have (and it could be a problem for them, especially in junior high) and characters like Dick Grayson are there for them to identify with and be inspired by.
This is sanitation.
Only for the story arc; he's already slated to go back to a revamped version of his previous look next year.Just look at Red Hood's recent makeover

Even Batman will be ditching the trunks and getting something more akin to his awesome Batman Inc/movie Batman/Rebirth suit.
Best thing Didio has done in years is Sideways, so it's safe to say that when it comes to already established characters, he should stay away.
No DiDio hates legacy characters he had tried to kill Nightwing when Bludhaven got destroyed before but writers pushed back so he lived but Nightwing city Bludhaven was destroyed regardless
My name is Rick, I'm gonna stick it to ya, babe.
DC is bent on removing any type of Dick from the Batfamily. First Bruce's, now Dick.

This is a non issue.
If you're a comic book fan you know this'll be retconned within two years.
If you're not a comic book fan there's no reason you should care.

It's only a non issue because people will get upset and won't accept it. if they didn't, this stupid change would stick and next thing you know "Ric" would have his own movie.
The solicitation for Nightwing #56 (Jan. 2019) calls him "Dick", though. Pretty sure this change is just temporary until he recovers from his head wound.
I'm fine with them using it as part of the head injury plotline. No way this sitcks though. And if they try to seriously make this change... still won't matter. The next big creative shakeup will just decide to toss it. So it's just a waste of their time.
Fans want Dick.
I have two friends named Richard, known them for ages. There's tons of Dick jokes and at least half of them come from the Richards themselves. It's just a part of the name's legacy. I'm sure it's a big reason for the decline of the name's use, but who cares. Things come and go in waves... next thing we know we will see a boom in the number of babies named Richard in 10 or so years as things continue to change once again.

Fuck off DC.
Especially around the time when the Dick Cheney movie is coming out.
You are a disgrace to all us Dicks. You wont take away my Dick.

You can't alter characters as old and ingrained in popular culture as this one and expect it to stick. They're welcome to try, though.
I expect Dick Grayson to still be a thing in 30 years when I'm old and grey. And Superman will still have his red underwear, too.

I mean they can try and rename him Ric but I really doubt anyone will stop calling him Dick Grayson. I know I won't.
If they'd just have gone with "call me Rick, I really don't like being called "dick" anymore" I doubt many people would care as much as it's for "Ric". Which isn't a thing real people say.
If the internet influenced comics, Ms Marvel would be the most read comic book ever. We don't factor into this, it'll organically be undone by the time Doomsday Clock ends.
The weird respirator with the eye mask is what tripping me up, it looks so bad.Just look at Red Hood's recent makeover
