Do you like your name? If not, what would you rather be called? (1 Viewer)

[Jason Handy]

My wife's ex-roomate decided when she met me that there were not enough men named Bob in her life. So instead of calling me by my first name, I was always referred to as Bob. It was pretty cool. As a follow up, I worked for a community radio station in Charlottesville (very cool, modern rock, no commercials 91.9 WNRN) and my handle was Jason Roberts. A neat inside joke for my friends and I.
I am sadly no longer referred to as Bob, just Jason. :frowning:

 

[Alan Benson]

I'm comfy with Alan, but not wild about it... I use Adam for some pseudonyms, because it's close, but a bit more percussive and butch...
Hey now... Butch; there's an idea...

 

[Darrel McBane]

I've always liked.....Bob Malukalukaluka
Not sure if someone already has it yet though?
Trivia: What movie is that name from?

 

[John Garcia]

Well, considering my name is John, I don't think it gets any more basic than that, unless my last name was Smith. I have no problem with my name, though some say I don't look like a "John". No toilet comments, thank you. :rolleyes
I always liked the name Zaphod Beeblebrox.

 

[Paul_D]

Viper or Flame Boy

I saw a snipet on the web that said [the tire company] was offering to pay for anyone with the last name Dunlop, to legally change their last name to "Dunlop-tire". They would also receiver either a discount on or one set of free tires. This was a promotional stunt due to a significant anniversary for the company, and it said that nobody had yet taken them up on the offer. (I don't know if it is true or not, but entertaining).

 

[Charles J P]

I dont dislike my legal name, I've just never gone by it... even since the day I was born. My father and maternal grandfather are both Charles as well (although my grandfather died before I was born) and my parents did not want the confusion. My dad goes by Charlie, and I have always been CJ (Charles Joseph) even my business cards say CJ. The only thing that really pisses me off about it is that HTF wouldnt let me register CJ or any variation and I tried about 4 times before they took Charles J P Oh well.

 

[David Von Pein]

Could be worse......
You might be stuck with ..... Tug McGroin ... or Hans Ondik.

 

[Francois Caron]

The only annoyance with my name is that I always have to spell it out whenever I call an American reservation agent.
Aside from that, I like it. It works for me.

 

[Frank Zimkas]

Okay folks I'm going to change my name but I need to know which would be best...

Buck Naked

or

Sir Loin

 

[Patrick McCart]

I'm fine with my name.
The only name I could think of if I didn't like it would be T.J. Pootertoots.

 

[Frank Zimkas]

Maybe I'll Change it to Dick Goesinya

 

[Dome Vongvises]

I like my name. I'm the only Tanachat Dominic Vongvises in the world.

 

[Jagan Seshadri]

Jagan. I pronounce it like " Jaggin' ".

My parents gave me a 'western' middle name in case I wanted to use that, but Jagan beat out my middle name hands down.

My surname however...I'm used to it now but Seshadri is just a tongue twister, I'm sorry.

-JNS

 

[Scott Bourden]

My middle name is Ash... So, as a child, I took endless amounts of crap and being called "Ashley"... But, then I discovered Evil Dead, and the name became cool... Then the Crow, and it gave me another excuse to tell people to go to hell... Anyway, I always liked it
But, if I could change my name, I believe my only real choice would have to be (and I owe it to myself):
Howie Feltersnatch

 

[Paul D Young]

I've always thought Paul was a bad name.

Thanks a lot!
If you don't like to use Paul, you can just call me Awesome Dude!

 

[Alex Spindler]

I dig my name, but there is that small part of me that wants to be called John Bigboote.....TAY! TAY!

 

[Tom Johnson]

I want to be called T-Bone.

 

[Alex Spindler]

Hey Koko!

 

[Tom Johnson]

Gammy is getting angry!
