Can I have your votes please... do I go back to my old name or keep this one?

[queenoftheslatterns]

I was lissie, was lissie from the day I joined. even when I de-regged tech let me have lissielou back. a while ago I decided to stop ttc for a while and as a result I wanted a name that would not bring my history to mind straight away, after all my ftc journey has been rather well documented on here

but I miss being lissie and cant get used to my new name. i keep seeing it on my threads and getting a bit thrown.

so what should i do?

[queenoftheslatterns]

shameless bump.

[JohnnyTwoHats]

QOTS a much superior name IMO. You'll get used to it, I had another name on here and had to get all my posts deleted by Mumsnet because my exdp had started searching for my posts. I am used to my new name now (but still yearn for the old one occasionally...)

[EssenceOfJack]

I agree, QOTS much better name, and I think most of us know you are/were lissie.

I know what you mean though, I have yearnings to be jackBauer again and will prob change back as this joke has got old

[queenoftheslatterns]

thanks, i just miss my old name. i do like this one though!

[JackBauer]

See, I do know what you mean!


You could combine them? Like LissieQueenofSlatternia?

[MmeLindt]

I did not know you were lissie but now I do, I recognise you, if that makes sense.

I agree that QOTS is a much better name. Stick with it. Or go with the LissieQueenof suggestion.

[HelenMumsnet]

Hello. We like BOTH your names

But if you'd like to reclaim lissie, do mail us at [email protected] and we'll see what we can do...

[queenoftheslatterns]

oooh, thats a good idea!

mmelindt, thats the prob, when i first namechanged i was blanked on virtually every thread i posted on, and if i replied to a ttc/mc thread i'd have to "introduce" myself

at jackbauer

[queenoftheslatterns]

aw, thanks helen (a little crawling is good fpor the soul )

i think i still have lissielou in my namechange list.

[ClaireDeLoon]

Same as MmeLindt - I hadn't realised (until my mistake in that other thread this monring ) but now I know it is you I will remember. And I like your new name.

But I understand what you mean about having to explain too.

[queenoftheslatterns]

claire! I do like this name and tbh it sums me up pretty well (looks at "ironing" board is out, iron is on and Ive only done one frock so far!)

[domesticslattern]

We slatterns should stick together.

[queenoftheslatterns]

deal. I shall remain the queenoftheslatterns
