It's close to miiiiidnight
And something trolly's lurking in the dark

Under the mooooonlight
You see a name that almost stops your heart

You pour a giiiiin
But terror shakes your hand before you make it

You start to post
As terror looks you right between the eyes - you're paralysed!

'CAUSE THIS IS NAME CHANGE! NAME CHANGE NIGHT!
And nothing's going to save you from the pun about to strike
You know it's name change! Name change night!
Fighting for a prize inside a name change, name change toniiight...

Dig out the fake blood and your thinking caps - it's time to come up with a scarily good Halloween name change Halloween Grin

Post on this thread under your new name telling us what your usual nickname is (so we can see the hilarious joke you've made. I'm usually KateSMumsnet)

Why thank you

I am quite pleased with it. Quite pleased with IAmAPaleontologist, I feel it will lend itself well to various guises unlike my previous name.

I'm usually AmeliaPeabody.

Mine is a play on my name and the book title, one of the Amelia Peabody books of course, The Mummy Case.

MummyQueenofPutridFleshandGore · 24/10/2014 00:00

ArtDecoGirly Halloween Grin

NormanBatesTheForeman · 23/10/2014 21:58

Usually NormanTheForeman. Not expecting to win anything this year. Was shortlisted last year, but as usual the popular people got the votes. Just like anything in schools. If you're not cool, you'll never win anything.

But I'm plastic, so why should I care? Smile

UpWithWitchIWillNotSpook · 23/10/2014 20:16

This is me.

Do I have to say my normal name? Would it not suffice that I get the [non]irony of it (e.g. I have my limits), as evidenced by the fact that I help people out in Relationships, whilst rarely never correcting their spelling?

Halloween Grin
MrsTerrorPratchett · 23/10/2014 20:08

Zombie surely you are pre-Halloweened!

I forgot to say I was MrsTerryPratchett (in case it wasn't blindingly obviously).
