It's a late Friday pm and I'm going home soon, I have nothing else to do (until I get home when I start again)


I'm ok with mine(Alison), I don't hate it so I wouldn't change it.


When I was a little girl I wanted to be called Mary.

hey my names Alison, and my mother's is Mary. Spookey. When I was little I was a plain skinny kid so wanted a real girlie-pink-fluffy name to make me pretty. I see-sawed between names like annabelle, suzie, bethany, anne-marrie etc. But now very happy with Alison. Not unusual but not common.

My name is Carole and I hated it until my mother told me she wanted to call me Amanda. I always fancied something sophisticated (like the 60's actress Alexander Bastedo)!

carole was it not alexandra???


i'm ok with my first name but would erase my middle name altogether... its gertrude

I was named Don because my dad wanted a name that could't be played around with or shortened so he thought if he kept it to one syllable that would stop anyone from messing around with it.

Example: Michael gets Mick or Mickey.

It's irritating to this day when all official correspondence I get is addressed to Mr. Donald Bradley, and was worse at school when I got the nickname "duck" Grrr
I have 3 christian names and a long surname....Im not joking I was bored at work today and thought "Should I change my name by deed pole to Zorro...just Zorro - no surname"

Im happy enough with my name!


Unfortunately my boyfriends name is Barry Bucket....


If you become mrs. Bucket Samantha you will have to pronounce it Boo-kay like the TV character

My boyfriend's name is Bytheway (By-the-way), no I'm not joking.

Is that his christian name Whiskey
I'm happy wi ma name but I hate it when strangers assume it's all right to shorten it and then they get the hump when I correct them....

Hi, my name is Ray (obviously) but if I changed it I would like a name like,


Santiago de compestella or Tierra del fuego


they are great names don't you think????


If not one of those I will settle for Albert Scringe,sounds a right miserable old git,suit me fine !!!

Ray....not as god as Zorro....but i think Santiago de Compestella may have a bit of class

I am Padraig usually anglisised to Patrick either of which I can tolerate but don't really like.Hate Paddy though or Pat or the worst of the abbreviations Patsy. I really don't think Patsy does any man a favour.


Dunno what I'd be called if I suddenly had the chance to change it but probably something exotic like raysparx suggested,but as long as it's not Patsy I'm happy though:)

David was the commonest name in Britain for most of my life, and it is boring. I'd like one of those names that sounds like a place and one few others have. My last name was changed from a foreign one to a first name and that causes no end of confusion either. If it wasn't for all my certificates I'd use the old one again but that would confuse even more.
Got to admit that Zorro is a great name,and who is going to argue with the great man???

I have a great Scottish name, unfortunately spoilt by the fact that my mum and dad misspelt it.


So I would change my name to the correct spelling to stop the mispronunciations, and people constantly telling me it's the wrong spelling!

alba am I allowed to ask what yir name is?
I bet its Jessica

ide change my name.


never did like being called FUNKY !! LOL
