I've seen a few recently, and I don't thinl they are topical name changes.

Confused

So, could people not do it?

Ok?

I have the same first name as coco. Seeing that there poster with the real name as her moniker freaks me right out.

Startailoforangeandgold · 06/09/2012 13:21

Stargirl confuses me, she shouldn't I'm far too old.

Stargreyroots that's meSad

BrainSurgeon · 06/09/2012 13:26

Toastie, are you Apocalypse by any chance? Haven't seen her around lately...

IvanaNap · 06/09/2012 13:26

MyDog - did your hound used to poo footwear?

ChaosRulyTreigns · 06/09/2012 13:29

Can't say I've noticed it.

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 06/09/2012 13:31

There are no other Empresses Grin

ObviouslyInvisible is a Puddlehumper and luffly.

Nagoo · 06/09/2012 14:09

I'm sure she is very nice, empress, it just messes with the mental filing system you know! You think you know a person...

It is just me who really hopes coco's and *tyrion's first name is Titsalina? Grin

MyDogShitsMoney · 06/09/2012 14:10

She did Ivana but I felt her last achievement excelled the previous one!

NormaStanleyFletcher · 06/09/2012 14:14

There are a few other normas, but none of them are banged up

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 06/09/2012 14:21

I know, Nagoo!

Yy to Titsalina Grin

SugarBatty · 06/09/2012 14:22

I notice a few fango related names but a lot of the time don't pay that much attention to any names!

BrainSurgeon · 06/09/2012 14:24

Oh that's another name I miss - TitsalinaBumsquash.... where did she go...

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 06/09/2012 14:27

I liked TheMagnificentBathykolpian.

And at the moment, EyesDoMoreThanSee although I'm not sure whether she's channelling Isaac Asimov or Meat Loaf. I'm in favour of either.

Oakmaiden · 06/09/2012 14:29

I AM Oakmaiden

I don't think there are any others.

But I would be very offended if someone snaffled a "nearly Oakmaiden" name.

PseudoBadger · 06/09/2012 14:33

Thank you Nagoo, I do feel uncomfortable that people thought I was writing posts when I actually wasn't.

LadyWellian · 06/09/2012 14:39

Titsalina is still aropund - I've seen her recently - though I didn't for a long time.

There are lots of 'Ladyxxx's. I am not a man named Ian. I do answer to Welly on the knitting threads.

I assumed strandednomore was the one formerly known as strandedbear who was previously strandedpolarbear before having to change it so people didn't confuse her with StealthPolarBear.

cocolepew · 06/09/2012 14:42

If only it were Titsalina?

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 06/09/2012 14:45

Strandedpolarbear was banned. Strandednomore's someone else, she's been around for a couple of years I think.

EmpressOfTheGoldFlames · 06/09/2012 14:47

Gwendoline?

Nagoo · 06/09/2012 14:47

People should make more use of their hoverer in times when it's confusing, then we would KNOW.

I like to know!

Grin I don't mix you up with anyone, Maryz.
LadyWellian · 06/09/2012 14:53

Nagoo tell me how to make use of my hoverer [begs]. I've never managed to work it out.

mrscumberbatch · 06/09/2012 14:54

There's another mrscb that is often in S&B but it's not cumberbatch- it's something else.

I keep clicking onto threads and seeing 'Thanks Mrs CB' or 'Mrs CB said....' and it totally messes with my head.
