I just love it. What I really want to know is where is cheery littlebottom? According to mn the name is taken but I've never seen it.
So far I have spotted
MrsTerryPratchett
NannyOgg
Greebo
IShallWearMidnight
TiffanyAching

And quite a few others I can't recall right now.
Who haven't I spotted / remembered and where is cheery?

There's CMOTDibbler. There should be a GrannyWeatherwax but that was taken when I was looking for a TP name - hence, not discworld but one of your gang. I think there might be a MistressWeatherwax (damn why didn't I think of that?)

AnathemaDevice · 14/02/2013 18:34

My name is from Good Omens rather than Discworld, do I count?

GrimmaTheNome · 14/02/2013 18:38

There's also
leonardofquirm
WheresMyCow
sibylvimes
Lady Margolotta

I'm sure there is a Magrat somewhere

Me Grin

BatmanLovesVodkaAndCherryade · 14/02/2013 19:11

I used to be BatmanLovesVimes.

But I love vodka and cherryade more...

AdoraBelleDearHeart · 14/02/2013 19:15

And there's me Smile but it's too similar to someone else so I don't use it.

RobAnybody · 14/02/2013 19:16

So I'll use this one instead.

AnnieLobeseder · 14/02/2013 19:18

Haven't got one myself but I do like to spot them.

I'm sure there was an Angua-based name at one point....

IShallWearMidnight · 14/02/2013 19:18

Grimma - I wanted your name, but you snaffled it first Smile.

manicbmc · 14/02/2013 19:18

I should change my name to 'You' like Granny Weatherwax's kitten. Grin

PerditaXDream · 14/02/2013 19:35

You just prompted me to change mine. I think I like it.

MrsHelsBels74 · 14/02/2013 19:38

Ooh I'm tempted to change my name now...will get my thinking cap on Grin

Binkyridesagain · 14/02/2013 19:40

My cats are called You and Greebo Grin

MrsHelsBels74 · 14/02/2013 19:45

Bah all the names I wanted were taken. Will try again when I have more time!

CarrottsCarrot · 14/02/2013 19:54

This thread inspired me to wear this for a bit.

MrsTerryPratchett · 14/02/2013 20:12

I got name checked. I am so happy.

I have also seen a FutureNannyOgg or something like that. I find all the people with TP names (I include Good Omens and The Bromeliad etc.) to be lovely people. Possibly excepting myself Grin

HerrenaHarridan · 14/02/2013 20:14

I think SybilVimes is possibly LadySybil now?
Anathema of course you count MrsTerryPratchett does. Although I've always wondered if that's a double bluff and she really is?!
I tried every combination of grannyweatherwax I could think of with no luck! Also eskarinasmith but I've yet to see that.
Hi carrot Grin

Say no more, nod's as good as a wink. I'll tell the DH (you know who) that you are talking about him...

HerrenaHarridan · 14/02/2013 20:19

LadyMargolotta yes I definitely remember seeing her somewhere recently.
Definitely never seen Angua, I'm sure I would have noticed.
Thinking about it I think I remember seeing gaspode at one point.
Oh and definitely a Cohen

HerrenaHarridan · 14/02/2013 20:20

Oh and wasn't there a nobbynobbs at one point?
