what would you change your name to?

Sorry, folks.

When I was a kid I was called by my middle name (Ruth), which I hated. When I entered high school I started going by my first name (Stephanie), which was better than the middle name but I’ve never felt it really suited me. If I had the inclination, I would change my name to Meredith. But I’d keep my husband’s last name, because it’s awesome.

***This *** is why I love this place.

I’ve wanted to change my name since…ooooh…forever.
My favorite last name du jour is Honeyjager. It’s just so cool. Even if it is german. It sounds porn starry and all.

Other last names up for consideration:

Weisenheimer (funny and jewish. Who could ask for anything more?)

Sexauer (Sexauer all day long! Huzzah Huzzah!)

Haythornewaite

Upthegrove

Richendollar

Haythaler (Howth it going?) This would be even better if my first name were Ethel.

I’d go with Ernie McInerney, which has been my favourite joke alias for quite some time now.

I once knew a girl from overseas named “Goode pusey”…Honestly…and what made things worse was that her boyfriend was named “Dick” :smiley:
As for me, my real name is Garfield. but if I had to change my name, I would probably change it to " Alligapoop". That was people won’t think its strange :smiley:

I am actually going to change my name. My wife wants the same name as me since we’ve been civil-unioned. Thing is, hers is generic (White) and I’ve never felt any sort of attachment to mine (LaRoe).

Since it’s the same cost to change all your names as just one, I’m gonna do the whole thing. I’m not particularly attached to my first name either (Kerri) and I’ve gone by K. for…almost 12 years now. I was thinking of using my great-grandmother’s first name (Hazel). I’ve always thought it really beautiful, and then something that starts with K for a middle name, so that people can still just call me K. Now we just have to find a last name that we aggree on. I will enjoy having the initials H.K. It just sounds cool.

I’ll take that as a compliment! :cool:

I am pretty happy with my name, which translates to “King of the Kings” in English :cool:
But if I had to, I wouldchoose the name I always use as an alias in chat rooms, Maverick… sounds cool :cool:

John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt.

First names:

Lily
Rhiannon
Devyn (until I gave that to my daughter :cool:)
Tamisaen

I think most gaelic feminine names are GORGEOUS! Now if I wanted a hippy name, I’d use Indigo.

Last names:

Anything other than my real one, UGH! It’s a friggin’ adjective and I’m NOT tellin’! Possibly McCullough, which is my grandmother’s maiden surname or something with Thorne in it.

My real name is Heather and I’m for sale. Just keep me near bright sunlight and make sure I don’t dry out… get it? Plants… :rolleyes:

Philip Madonna Talula Electrolux.

Best. Name. EVER!

When I was a teenager heavily in to rock bands, I wished more than anything in the world that my name was that of either of the syth/audio-generator players of the legendary British acid-rock band Hawkwind:

**Del Detmar ** or Dik Mik

Thanksfully time heals…

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the Armies of the North… General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife.

And I will have my vengeance… in this life or the next.

Next on Law & Order. :slight_smile:
