RebeccaTheHallsMumsnet · 04/12/2012 12:17

With the Christmas shopping now in full swing and AIBU full to the brim with Am I Being Unseasonables - we though it was time to dust off our Christmas jumpers nicknames and display them in true MN poncetastic style and invite you to show yours off too. Xmas Blush

Please post with your new nickname below and include your normal nickname in your post and we will enter you into our name change competition.

We will have a dig around in the cupboards for a prize for the best name change.

You have until Thursday 6th to post with your festive name and we will devise a shortlist with a poll for everyone to vote for their favourites on Friday 7th.

We will leave the poll up over the weekend and announce the winner on Monday 10th.

Xmas Grin

I do think some of the better names were missed off tbh but one of the ones that made me smile was there and that got my vote.

Yes, some of the better names were deffo left off.

I may sound bitter and that is because I am but why have you shortlisted some names that bear absolutely no resemblance whatsoever to the original poster?

There were about 100 good names IMO really, all the ones in shortlist are good Xmas Smile

Mintyy - are you referring to me?

I thought the relation of your Christmas name to your usual one was clever, LikeAVirginMary, if not immediately obvious.

Thank you, BOFingSanta. I did want to be simply LikeAVirgin but sadly someone used that as a name change once a couple of years ago so I was denied!

I voted for you Solo - I was the first one! I thought it was brilliant and I thought loads of people would follow my brilliant lead, but apparently they just aren't clever enough. Good Luck Xmas Smile
