Yahoo permits users to have a primary handle name/account and attach secondary handles as needed to the primary account. Is this possible with Drupal?

I've been working on setting up a community website which would allow users to add their creative identity, professional identity, etc. but would rather these be treated as "handles" as described above.

Each user account must have a distinct email address. You can set it up so that users can change their username, password, and signature. And you can have any number of fields in their profile. Perhaps that would enable you to do what you want.

There's an Alternate Login module that does this, but as far as I can tell it only allows one extra handle.

It's a great module. I used this on a 4.7 site when a school wanted to connect usernames and student IDs to the same account.
