The tech billionaire formerly known as Elon Musk is no more — at least for now. Long live Mr Tweet.
Twitter's new owner changed his name on his personal account to Mr Tweet but appears to be having difficulty switching it back.
"Changed my name to Mr Tweet, now Twitter won’t let me change it back," Mr Musk wrote on the platform, posting a laughing emoji.
It was a moment of levity for Mr Musk, who has lost his crown of world's richest person since his controversial purchase of Twitter in October fuelled a collapse in Tesla's stock price.
Mr Musk's online name change came after a lawyer accidentally called him "Mr Tweet" in a courtroom this week.
The billionaire is on trial over a 2018 tweet in which he said he had secured funding to take the electric car maker private.
Twitter has implemented a string of new rules since Mr Musk took the helm, including limiting how often people can change their names on the platform.
Mr Musk's comment that Twitter won't let him change his name back is an apparent reference to this rule, which was designed to stop users from impersonating other people.

Buy farm-fresh food
The UAE is stepping up its game when it comes to platforms for local farms to show off and sell their produce.
In Dubai, visit Emirati Farmers Souq at The Pointe every Saturday from 8am to 2pm, which has produce from Al Ammar Farm, Omar Al Katri Farm, Hikarivege Vegetables, Rashed Farms and Al Khaleej Honey Trading, among others.
In Sharjah, the Aljada residential community will launch a new outdoor farmers’ market every Friday starting this weekend. Manbat will be held from 3pm to 8pm, and will host 30 farmers, local home-grown entrepreneurs and food stalls from the teams behind Badia Farms; Emirates Hydroponics Farms; Modern Organic Farm; Revolution Real; Astraea Farms; and Al Khaleej Food.
In Abu Dhabi, order farm produce from Food Crowd, an online grocery platform that supplies fresh and organic ingredients directly from farms such as Emirates Bio Farm, TFC, Armela Farms and mother company Al Dahra.

The more serious side of specialty coffee
While the taste of beans and freshness of roast is paramount to the specialty coffee scene, so is sustainability and workers’ rights.
The bulk of genuine specialty coffee companies aim to improve on these elements in every stage of production via direct relationships with farmers. For instance, Mokha 1450 on Al Wasl Road strives to work predominantly with women-owned and -operated coffee organisations, including female farmers in the Sabree mountains of Yemen.
Because, as the boutique’s owner, Garfield Kerr, points out: “women represent over 90 per cent of the coffee value chain, but are woefully underrepresented in less than 10 per cent of ownership and management throughout the global coffee industry.”
One of the UAE’s largest suppliers of green (meaning not-yet-roasted) beans, Raw Coffee, is a founding member of the Partnership of Gender Equity, which aims to empower female coffee farmers and harvesters.
Also, globally, many companies have found the perfect way to recycle old coffee grounds: they create the perfect fertile soil in which to grow mushrooms.
