Mine used to be a Dr Who name. Initially when I joined MN, I was StayingSunnygirl, but when Matt Smith became the 11th Doctor, I changed it to StayingDavidTennantsGirl, because I didn't approve of the new Doctor - and I still believe DT was the best doctor ever.

Over the years, I have abbreviated it to SDTG, in order to add other bits to my nickname.

OhYouBadBadKaleds · 19/11/2013 11:01

I remember you as StayingDavidTennantsGirl :)

Just to make it clear, those who are already Doctor Who names obviously wouldnt need to change for the comp as clearly their loyalties run deep and so they would especially love an autographed lovely photo or a fez or a working sonic screwdriver.

We asked months ago for this MNHQ and someone said it would be discussed. Also asked for emoticons.

OhYouBadBadKaleds · 19/11/2013 12:10

I remember the emoticon request.

Excellent idea. I've just thought of a good one Smile

BlinkQuenelle · 19/11/2013 12:22

You have to say it out loud quickly.

Allons-Y !

ChippingInLovesAutumn · 19/11/2013 12:26

I wondered why you had namechanged and what the hell it meant Grin

I'm not sure my namechange would be in the spirit of it
