And it was his mention of it that caused me to do some investigating and discover that mine is _tomorrow_.

So this isn’t a completely useless hijack, thanks **lno**.

You didn’t notice the upcoming One-Year Anniversary, or you didn’t notice the fact that you now have a male “ **I** no name?”

**Ino** , you are aware that Massachusetts is already a Native American name, right :p? Of course you did.

Proudly I go, to defend against… cod. The bland-but-important-staple fish of the Bay waters.

**lno** I think you should post what you suggested, it would be amusing…

AskNott is Ask Whatt Your Tribal Name Can Do For You.

Thank you kindly, lno! I think I spelled it right that time. " 'ell no" contains a joke, and “Ino” doesn’t seem to.

**Tir Tinuviel** , per her advice, is _She Who Tries To Get Lno To Say Something That Will Cause TwistOfFate To Massacre Him_, but I’m too canny for you, I am.

**Trion** had once dreamed of being the Trionic Man (see, that’s one better than the Bionic Man) but budget cuts forced him to shorten the name to just five letters. _Angry At Government Cutbacks_ he became.

**dobbinaire** is _Once Paid Two Dollars To See The Invisible Man_.

**Toaster52** ends up as _Fifty-Two Weeks, Fifty-Two Toasters, It All Works Out_.

**LaurAnge** is _Oh, Yah, You Betcha, Eh?_ 'cos we all know she really does speak like that.

**Celyn** , I admit that the first thing that came into my mind was Ceylon, then I recognized the source of your name. The tribal name just came naturally at that point. 🙂

And while ‘lno’ contains a joke and ‘Ino’ does not, the joke derives from “Lo, new olf!” and not “hell no”. But hey, I’m flexible. Hell no it is.

LOL!

I did no such thing… you came up with the other idea all on your own! [sub](well, almost…)[/sub]

ha ha ha!

You rock, but I think you should have another go, as I can hardly put that in my sig! 😛  
[sub]And no making me _“Woman Who Needs To Be Pleased Twice”…_ although thinking about that… heh ;)[/sub]

So **lno** spelled backwards would be … flowenol? That sounds like a drug to cause incontinence 😛 .  
Sorry, sometimes I can’t help myself. Okay, usually. Well, really always. Yes, that’s it. I always can’t help myself. help me, help me …

I, too, would like to have an lno sobriquet please.

'ey, I like it! I have to second **Celyn** ’s “How did you guess?”, because _The Invisible Man_ just happened to be my favorite show before it got cancelled.  
Thanks **lno**.
