to be a bit miffed that someone on mn............

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

has a name so like mine.......

[donnie]

just be flattered dear....

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

so someone comes along and calls themselves fattydonnie you would be ok with it????

[Saturn74]

Who? Where? What? Why?

[lissielou]

there there.

[brandy7]

mmm this was mentioned a few weeks back,cant remember the name but it was very similar and a contraversial comment that was made on some thread by whoever it was

[SmileysPeople]

When I joined I called myself Tinkerboo. After a while I realised there was a Tinker, she was a longer server than me so I changed.

Could you approach the other poster and come to some agreement??

[SmileysPeople]

Is she called fatty2shoes then??

That is TOO much

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

no fattytwoshoes(she seems very nice)

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

I will not be changing my name
I think people will be able to tell us apart.
I hope lol

[Aero]

Yes - I've not confused the two 2/twoshoes crew! Wouldn't worry about it.

[flutterbee]

I noticed this before

[twelveyeargap]

Easily done. I'm TwelveYearGap, there is also a 12yeargap...

Since I'm usually found on my antenatal thread and rarely make forays into the wider Mumsnet world , it's never been a problem.

[SmileysPeople]

Who was here first?

Is she seriously damaging your unique brand?
How strong is your case?

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

for the one and only time I can actually say I was here first as she is VERY new.
So if you read this
hello Fattytwoshoes

[Tirnanog]

there can only be one 2shoes

[Earlybird]

Know just how you feel. Last year there suddenly appeared an Earlysbird - so exactly same as me but with an added S. I didn't like it at all, but comforted myself with the thought that she at least posted sensibly, so people weren't going to confuse me with someone disagreeable.

The problem solved itself though - she either name-changed (without any discussion between the two of us), or she's gone off and got herself a life because she never posts anymore.

[sweetkitty]

there's at least 2 other mumsnetters with kitty in their names too

doesn't really bother me that much though i'm the sweetest kitty

[charliecat]

PMSL, I am fattytwoshoes best friend in real life.
Shes been on MN for ages, on and off, under various names.
I saw her new name and said You do know theres a 2shoes on MN already....Shit she said, should I change it? Nah I said...see if anyone notices
PMSL. I will text her now and let her know she needs to be thinking of a name change!

[clemsterdarcy]

There's a Mrs Darcy and I am clemsterdarcy ... I know where you're coming from ... nooone likes to feel common ... tis the same with out LOs names ...

[SmileysPeople]

Great problem solved!!

I can imagine how annoying it must be.

If someone changed their name to SmileyPeople (without the S), why I wouldn't take it lying down,I'd ...I'd....sulk

[charliecat]

Shes texted back saying Tell her I didnt know

[SmileyPeople]

[SmileysPeople]

Ok that's it, I'm sulking.

After recovering from my confusion...thinking I didn't post that..it was a bit spooky!!

(please go away now)

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

it's ok just think we can start our own 2shoe clique.
