First name terms

[Arch]

And I'm Sue...

Now you're just trying to confuse things. We've had ages of people who didn't know any better assuming you were a bloke. Go round calling yourself Sue and everybody will be wondering where Arch has buggered off to.[/quote]

I was hoping people wouldn't actually use my real name much, just so that confusion could reign once again. I'm Arch, I am.

Although Stanley is sort of fun...

Now, I just need to find my Livingstone....

 

[Unkraut]

And I'm Sue...

With a name like that, no wonder you have a penchant for solicitors.

Yours,

Unkraut, or should I say Ken, being a name that was quite popular some 30 years before I was born.

Perhaps a kind solicitor would help me change the name by deed poll to something more modern, like Algernon.

 

[TimO]

Just so long as you're not a Boy Named Sue...

<Johnny Cash>And I said: "My name is 'Sue!' How do you do!</Johnny Cash>



Oh, and I'm Tim, but you've probably realised that!

There seem to be a lot of Tim's about.

 

[barq]

I'm Dan.

As for the 'barq' moniker, it is short for Barquentine who was a character in the Gormenghast trilogy. However I wanted a short, pronounceable name which could be registered as a domain name (barq.org). I've been using it for years, and luckily its so obscure that I can always register it on new forums!

 

[cisamcgu]

I'm Andrew

(cisamcgu is my username at work - that way I will remember it )

 

[Rhythm Thief]

I'm John. Or Jon, if you read my birth certificate.

 

[Keith Oates]

Like Patrick you will have noticed mine as well!!

As an online ID barq's no worse than byte

I'm Graeme, the g in the woefully unimaginative (compared to most of the above) username.

 

[Rab]

And my name is......... Oh I'm sure you can work it out

 

[Gordon]

I don't know why, but people keep calling me Gordon. No imagination, I suppose.

 

[SamNichols]

You can guess mine by my user name, so for comedy value I'll give you my middle name: Roy.

 

[Cycling Naturalist]

My name is Jez (which is short for the name my parents lumbered me with...b'stards...)

Jezabel?

 

[radger]

my name is Carys

Which causes all sorts of trouble as no-one knows how to say or spell it.

 

[SamNichols]

my name is Carys

Which causes all sorts of trouble as no-one knows how to say or spell it.

It is a confusing name - I have two friends with a name that is pronounced the same, but one is spelt: 'Charis' and the other: 'Carice'.

Noone ever spells my name right either, why always two 'L's ?

 

[mosschops2]

ROFL!!

I think mine is clear. Just checking....
