124 replies

KateSEggMumsnet · 15/04/2014 13:41

Dust off your old Easter nick name or think of a shiny new one and get into the Easter spirit! Easter Smile

We egg-spect a clutch of terrible puns, so please don't disappoint us.

Post on this thread under your Easter nick name saying what your old nickname was (so we can see how clever you've been Easter Wink).

Tomorrow we'll create a poll of some of the best names, and you can vote for you favourite. The three most popular names will be announced on Thursday, and will win a chocolate egg making kit, from stayindevon.co.uk.

So hop to it! Easter Grin

TheseAreTheYolksFolks · 16/04/2014 21:55

I am sulking cos I missed this by being utterly pants at password changes.
Bloody viruses. I was These are the jokes folks but I am now oeuf to vote
for Mary's cos I smirked seeing erection rather than resurrection.
I better get cracking as my brain is scrambled and I spent ages finding a password no-one else had poached.

EasterSmegs · 16/04/2014 22:34

Bit Easter Blush that I didn't get Maryz nc till just now. I thought it was Mary's erection too.

PurpleBouncingHoppily · 16/04/2014 22:36

Wahey, I made the shortlist! Even got a couple of votes. (I voted for Fucker, though. Grin )

EasterEggSoloVerTheFloor · 16/04/2014 23:29

Missed it! but voted...

EasterEggSoloVerTheFloor · 16/04/2014 23:30

Have to say though; I'm quite pleased with my Easter nc.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 17/04/2014 08:11

Oh I like that coconutty..:)

PurpleBouncingHoppily · 17/04/2014 08:22

I'm now one vote behind Fucker, coming fourth in a Top-Three-Get-Prizes comp, and it's MY vote that's keeping her ahead. Gaah! Next time, I will be cynical and twisted and vote for meself Easter Grin

CuntyBunny · 17/04/2014 09:24

How does one vote, and where is the short list please?

PurpleBouncingHoppily · 17/04/2014 09:29

Link here, Cunty www.mumsnet.com/Polls/easter-namechange-2014?res=1

Just been to look, and it's neck and neck. Hooray! Vote for me! Or Fucker! (I don't even care, as long as there's more than just my vote between us...)

I may be bouncing on caffeine rather than chocolate this morning, but you can't fault me on not living up to my name

CuntyBunny · 17/04/2014 09:34

Thanks, Purple; you're well in with me nowWink.

SaviourReBorn · 17/04/2014 09:38

It's a lot more wholesome than my alter ego SauvignonBlanche Easter Blush

SaviourReBorn · 17/04/2014 09:42

I love MaryZ's, it's as wholesome as mines so she got my vote. Easter Grin

HeggateChocolatier · 17/04/2014 10:23

Yeah! I made the shortlist!
but why does it say my usual name is the same as my easter name, and not hecate?

HeggateChocolatier · 17/04/2014 10:23

You miss the beauty of the ryhme! Grin

WhoKateAllTheEggsMumsnet · 17/04/2014 11:23

Aaaaaaaaand stop voting.

Thank you all for taking part and for your wonderful nicknames. I always say, it's not the winning that matters, it's how much chocolate you eat.

The top three names are, PurpleBouncingHoppily, MaRezerection, and MardyBaaLamb . Congratulations folks - we'll be getting in touch in a mo.

We leave you with this very profound Easter video:
