It's close to miiiiidnight
And something trolly's lurking in the dark

Under the mooooonlight
You see a name that almost stops your heart

You pour a giiiiin
But terror shakes your hand before you make it

You start to post
As terror looks you right between the eyes - you're paralysed!

'CAUSE THIS IS NAME CHANGE! NAME CHANGE NIGHT!
And nothing's going to save you from the pun about to strike
You know it's name change! Name change night!
Fighting for a prize inside a name change, name change toniiight...

Dig out the fake blood and your thinking caps - it's time to come up with a scarily good Halloween name change Halloween Grin

Post on this thread under your new name telling us what your usual nickname is (so we can see the hilarious joke you've made. I'm usually KateSMumsnet)

GoryellaItsaSpoonerismGeddit · 23/10/2014 10:38

I'm normally UriGeller and I feel I shouldn't have to be so obvious, but these days....sigh

Anyway, spoonerism. Uri Geller bends spoons. Goryella sounds halloweenish.

C'mon.

RabidWereMummy · 23/10/2014 13:23

Hello, babybearsmummy here!
A little on the unimaginative side, but Rabid Were-Mummy sounds rather fitting right about now due to the ever increasing lack of sleep that comes with having a toddler! Never know, I may not need the face paints this Halloween, I'm starting to look scary enough without haha! (Or should that be "mmwwwaaaahhhhaaahhhhaaaahhhaaa")

Good luck everyone

Abzsghoulute · 23/10/2014 16:34

I'm normally Abzs and I have EnWoooque and Chris to thank for this new moniker.

MrsTerrorPratchett · 23/10/2014 20:08

Zombie surely you are pre-Halloweened!

I forgot to say I was MrsTerryPratchett (in case it wasn't blindingly obviously).

UpWithWitchIWillNotSpook · 23/10/2014 20:16

This is me.

Do I have to say my normal name? Would it not suffice that I get the [non]irony of it (e.g. I have my limits), as evidenced by the fact that I help people out in Relationships, whilst rarely never correcting their spelling?

Halloween Grin
NormanBatesTheForeman · 23/10/2014 21:58

Usually NormanTheForeman. Not expecting to win anything this year. Was shortlisted last year, but as usual the popular people got the votes. Just like anything in schools. If you're not cool, you'll never win anything.

But I'm plastic, so why should I care? Smile
