When trying to connect to an irc server in irssi, I get the following error:

I don't know how to change the nickname before the connection is established. I'm currently connected to one server, where I have my proper nick, but when trying to connect to another server with connect irc.foo.com, which should open another connection, it's trying with the nickname root.
How do I change this nickname?

You can use the command:
irssi -n nickname1234
and to change the default nickname after you are connected
/SET default_nick = , defaults to user_name
/SET alternate_nick = , defaults to _
/SET user_name = , defaults to your login name
/SET real_name = , taken from /etc/passwd by default
