You guys are NUTS!

I mean this in a good way.

Let’s see. My first pet…I never had one, but when I was born, my parents had a cat. That would make me:

Precious Chesterfield

mascot/maiden:

Lancer MacDonald (not bad, if you’re male…I’m not)

Jedi:  
Saturn of NyQuil.

Here’s how I learned to do the Star Wars Name. It’s a bit more work, but then you get a nice full, formal name :

> [@](#):
>
> For your new first name, take the first 3 letters of your 1st name and and the first 2 letters of your last name  
> For your new last name, take the first 2 letters of your Mom’s maiden name and add the first 3 letters of the city you were born  
> How to determine your Star Wars honorific title:  
> Take the last three letters of your last name and reverse them.  
> Add the name of the first car you drove/owned.  
> Insert the word “of.”  
> Then tack on the name of the last medication you took.

OK, Leslie, let’s try that out.

Pathu Crpor, Tnuhornet of Aspirin

## Hmm. Looks cool. I just can’t figure out how to pronounce it.

Hmmm, this is my first post here, but I had to play along

1st pet/1st Street: Max Diane  
Mascot/ Maiden name: Golden Eagle Nelson  
Middle name/Current street : Blaise Pueblo

I think Blaise Pueblo is the only one that could possibly work. I don’t like it, though. My former street would’ve worked better - Blaise Sheridan. If only I’d known that I wouldn’t have moved 🙂

I took this game to work with me the other night and we came up with some good ones. The best was “Tomcat Bigwood”. I mentioned the Buster Cherry one, and a Syrian resident (doctor) didn’t get it. He smiled tolerantly while the rest of us howled with laughter.

I tried to get the Syrian doctor to play along, but it was difficult. For one thing, he insisted he’d never, ever had a pet. Then he said, well, he’d had a cat once for a few days but he didn’t like it so he got rid of it, and he hadn’t bothered to name it. He didn’t go to a high school like we have here, and he didn’t know or care what his college mascot was. He was able to provide his mother’s maiden name, but he had to translate it from Arabic for us.
