Well, not really “guess”. I was here back when Bosda was using his real name.

So you’re related to a one-time drummer for Slayer. Cool points +25. You have recieved the golden cloak of envy. Your cousin has level 99 double bass skills, and wins any battle with Dave Lombardo.

If by any chance your last name is Heinlein, I really look forward to meeting you. 🙂
So Jessica is right, but we’re not close of the other two names yet?
Jessica Helen Wigire?

Okay, I’m going to start giving hints.
–Jessica is, indeed, my first name.
–My middle name is actually almost common among the women I happen to know, but it’s probably most recognizable as the last name of a famous actress or two.
–My last name is #3 on the list of Surnames You Don’t Want To Have In Grade School, just after Lipshitz and Butts.

I should not have had so much trouble with Leigh. :smack:
Nice to meet you Jessica Leigh Weiner. I had a friend whose name was Andy Weiner, he made a similar comment about his last name. 🙂

I always felt bad that my mom didn’t get her way when I was named, until a particularly juvenile co-worker immediately thought of what the kids would have done with Daria. :eek:
