VOTE for your fave Halloween name change in our poll

After lengthy arguments discussions among the judges, here it is, the name change shortlist. Vote for your favourite here, the poll closes on Halloween (natch) and we'll let you know what the winner will receive once Alexia's come up with a suitably glittering prize

PeterCushion's brilliant - Goodness knows why it wasn't on the shortlist - do address all complaints on that one to [email protected]. Thanks.

None of the ones I wanted to vote for are on there [sulk] - and having refused to name change I am definitely not biased

If Alexia comes up with a similarly glittering prize for someone randomly chosen from amongst those who vote, I might be persuaded to get off the fence.

I thought bumperlicious's bloodystumperlicious was inspired and it's a travesty that she isn't on the shortlist

.....and that some of the neglected names are more inspired than some of those on your shortlist, albeit not belonging to (how to say this diplomatically) more prolific posters

Have voted, but would like to unofficially vote for Hecate cause her Halloween name is fantastic and should be on the shortlist

Can this be followed by a Harry Potter appreciation name change competition which I expect to win? Thanks!
(My fav is actually on the list, but in last place at the mo.)

Well done to those on the shortlist.
There are some very clever names missing though.
