Make me a New Name

All right. I’ve been here for a couple of years now, and while I still love the name ‘Diomedes’, I still feel put off in entering half of the threadsI want to, just because another Doper has the same shortening of name that I do. I mean, ‘Dio’ isa lot easier to type than Diomedes, I understand, but it seems that that abbreviation has been taken over. There have been a few cases where someone has referred to me as someone else, and vice versa. For whatever reason, it just ain’t workin’ for me.

So I offer to you dopers a chance to pick a new name for me. I don’t pretend to offer any more here than I have in my other threads, I imagine someone will come up with something awesome beyond awesome that’s unique enough so that I won’t have to deal with confusing shortenings.

In the spirit of Doperdom, I’ll offer a bottle of scotch or a fresh-killed squid to whoever designates me best.

Capeau Noir (part of a bilingual dirty pun)
Leadbelly Futures

Flaming Bottle of Scotch (Flaming)
Molotov Whiskey (Comrade Molotov)
Comrade Molotov

Macbeth

Rusty Boxcutter

Snakeskin Hotrod

Grimly Fiendish

Rockets Redglare

I have a proven track record in these matters. I therefore propose:

Catamaran Detergent

No need to thank me.
(Seriously, I have nothing, this time)

Azathoth

Shub-Niggurath

Hastur The Unspeakable

Nyarlathotep

Yog-Sothoth

Not many “Yogs” or “Nyarls” or “Shubs” on the board for you to confuse abbreviations with.

I’ve suggested it before and I’ll suggest it again:

Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!

This would be a good choice.

Also, it is longer than MY dopername, so I would no longer feel so self conscious about my…length.

The Interrupting Co*MOO!
Zithering Idiot
No Ledge
Amazing Indifference

Diomedes the Naive, or DtN for short.

A Doper To Be Named Later.

We’ll call you “Later”.

Oh, this gets my vote! (I like **The Interrupting Co*MOO!, **too)

Crotalus, if you win the Scotch, count me in…you already named What Exit? - you have a very special talent.

Porpoise… he has a very special porpoise.

Hmmm… I’ve always been partial to Chaugnar Faugn… Any 'Chaug’s on here?

You could stay close to your actual name by using an anagram:

DIME DOSE (shortened to DIME)

SIDE MODE (SIDE for short version)

Darth Volvo

or

Made of Bitch

or

Ronnie James Diomedes

Nope. We’ve had one Chaucer-related poster and two chauncys, but that’s the closest.

Yep, no confusion there.

Half Vast

Poof! You’re a new name!
