The Mumsnet Halloween Name Competition - no tips required

[OliviaMumsnet]

Here at MNHQ, we hear your pleas and respond to them.

We know how you all love to get in the "spirit" of things with your festive name changes, so we're giving you an opportunity to show them off in the Mumsnet Halloween Name Competition.

Please sign in here with your Halloween name change.

MNHQ will make a shortlist of our favourites at the weekend, and then there will be a Mumsnet poll on which everyone can vote. The winner will be announced on the 31st October.

Please note: the judge's decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
GOOD LUCK
MNHQ

Been on holiday last week, so not been able to log on this thread with my Halloween name until now! I'm usually BexieID.

Was on holiday last week so only been able to post on this thread now. Hope i'm not too late! Mine usually is BexieID.

Poop, missed it. Didn't mean to post twice, lol. I don't like any of the shortlisted names either!

is it the 31st yet? i think mine has a certain elegant simplicity.

I also prefer the classic look. I thought it was just me last week using a laptop.

how come threadworm has 2 names in the shortlist or am I being dense ?

none of the clever ones are on there...boooooooooo

Looks like shaunofthethread won, deservedly

Shaun, I've got a Christmas name for you:

Well done Shaunofthethread!

Are we having a Christmas name comp?

[rushes off to think of suitable name change]

yeah but she's normally threadworm, so maybe sledworm would be more like it!

anyway, we are jumping the gun. No xmas names till december at the earliest!
