Aauauuauugh. **Serendipity** , your new username is **Serendipity (I’m also female, FYI)**. And all future supplicants are asked to please give me hints to ensure that my feet stay out of my mouth and firmly on the ground. [sub]buh-lieve it or not, I’m walking on air…[/sub] You eleven people still awaiting names, I’ll have 'em for you tonight. ---

Yea, though I stumble at times, I shall not falter; the tribal names shall continue until the end of days. Or the end of this thread, whichever comes first. **Ginger Of The North** must be _She Who Sees Something Good In Weirddave And Needs Corrective Lenses._ (Nah, nah, I kid, I kid. Congratulations to you both.) **Velma** quite clearly is _She Who Plays Hard To Get With Those Baggy Sweaters And Thick Glasses But You Know She’s A Vixen In Disguise_. Like no one saw through that… **AskNott** is _Ask Whatt Your Tribal Name Can Do For You_. **ShibbOleth** , I think, is _Widely Traveled One Who Is Grateful The Bucs Are In The NFC South 'Cos They’d Only Get Spanked By Culpepper This Year_. **FNRFR** , is part of the same family tree of JBERGES and p@cific@812, and is named _He With A Broken Capslock Key And No Vowels_. **dantheman** , having been a French fur trader raised by British comedians, is _He Who Farts His Nose At Your Hamster_. **BrattiAtti** is _The One Who Lacks A Cherry 'Cos It’s Always Being Given Away_. **Kwijibo** , also known as _Balding Canadian Ape_, is well-renowned for triple word scores. **Grelby** , _Master (mistress?) Of Massapatoochets_, defends Cape Cod against, uhm, cod. **islandgirl** anagrammed her name to “I land girls” when she joined the Lenape, who renamed her _She Who Saves Girls From Ferocious Waters_. **Broodha** is _He With Buddha Nature Who Just Dwells On It Way Too Much_. **Daowajan** is _Poster Who Will Have His One-Year Anniversary In Two Days_. Uh, that name’s kinda time-sensitive, so make good use of it while you can. **ems** asked for a name to please lno. Giving names pleases lno greatly, thus the name is _Yurpean Who Pleases lno Without Even Trying_. **wayward** , having asked for creative juices, is _Covered In Goo, But The Creative Kind Of Goo_. **easy e** is _She Who Believes In Only Using One Consonant In Her Name_. **smiling bandit** , insecure about fitting in, is _Smiles At Doubt And Then Robs It Blind_. Bring it. Bring it on. ---

::sigh:: Since my other thank you seems to have been nibbled to oblivion, here it is again: Thank you, sweetie!! screech-owl (who really isn’t at all like Screech, well, except for the annoyingness, and the blatant over-enthusiasm, and perhaps dresses herself a little more fashionably than he does but not by much) ---
