OK, so Brunnen-G's test asked how often you change your Rinkworks screen name and I realised that it was NEVER. So it got me to thinking that I should live a little...change my name to something other than the name given to me by my mother.

And now I have spent the last half an hour trying to think of a suitable new name for me. And all I can come up with is something that Calvin or Hobbes would think of...like Lizzzz, Girl of Dessstiny...or Vampire Vixen of the Outer Darkness. But then I started thinking (a dangerous pastime) and I realised that there would be people thinking that there were TWO English girls with a passion for Marmite, Joseph Feinnes and the Sound of Music and would that not be a little confusing? Two of us? Liz and Lizzzzz? Weird.

It has also seriously got me thinking about how much of *you* is tied up in your name...How much of your identity is in what everyone calls you...whether it be your real name or not...Maybe this is just a bit of a rambling rant but I think that I had a point somewhere (maybe near the beginning, in case anyone cared to have a look-see)and if anyone thinks that they can retrieve it or give me a name suggestion that wasn't thought up by a small boy and an imaginary tiger, then please do.
