It's the Christmas name change competition!

Oh I wish it could be Christmas, every day!
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play...

It's the most wonderful time of the year Xmas Smile and what's merrier than a Christmas name change competition?

We’re after seasonal name changes that are a play on your usual name– or a new, Christmassy name altogether! To enter, post here under your new name, and tell us what your normal name is. You have till noon this Friday (the 23rd) to post, then we’ll pick a winner.

The Mumsnetter with the winning name will receive a prize from our magical cupboard of stuff treats and we will send it to you in January.

Good luck and be merry!

If Zombie doesn't win we should all throw our hands in!

ChristmassyMcChristmasface · 25/12/2016 17:22

Oh bugger, I was away and posted on the original post.
Can I have some treats anyway?

Did Zombie win MNHQ? Please say she did.

LornaMumsnet · 30/12/2016 11:57

Hi all!

Brilliant names - we're still in the process of picking a winner so do bear with us.

We hope you all had a fantastic Christmas?

HerRoyalFattyness · 30/12/2016 14:39

Hurry up! We need to know if zombie won!

IamtheZombie · 30/12/2016 15:09

Dearest Mumsnetters you are wonderful. But Zombie really thinks her life is overflowing with enough blessings right now. There are other very worthy contenders who deserve your support.

Thank you for the thought. xxxxx

Right then we're going to be a wee bit different and present a shortlist from which you can all pick a winner. Whoever gets the most votes, wins. The finalists ARE!

Over to you, folks.

WellErrr · 30/12/2016 17:35

Since Zombie has opted out, I'll go with CrapWreathKeith Grin

Okkitokkiunga · 30/12/2016 17:44

I concur WellErrr

HerRoyalFattyness · 30/12/2016 18:01

Well I don't care if she's opted out, I'm still picking zombie so ner.

ProjectGainsborough · 30/12/2016 18:04

Yeah, a Zombie vote here too.

HerodZackHunt · 30/12/2016 18:59

Actually this is awkward because if Zombie drops out it means picking 1 of 2 and I don't want to.
So yes. Zombie whether she likes it or not. And abstention if I can't vote for her.

MavisTheTwinklyToreador · 30/12/2016 19:03

Voting CrapWreathKeith

queenc81 · 30/12/2016 19:06

I'm voting zombie Grin

HappyFlappy · 30/12/2016 19:23

Zombie

But if she insists on not accepting this accolade (the MN equivalent of an Oscar, or being recognised in the Honours List), then CrapWreathKeith.

RemusLupinsChristmasMovie · 30/12/2016 19:24

Zombie - no contest.

iklboodolphRedNoseReindeer · 30/12/2016 19:41

I'm still voting Zombie cos this is a Demerara-ocracy. Or summat.

KimmySchmidtsFakeXmasSmile · 30/12/2016 20:16

C'mon MNHQ, surely you can find three gifts in your stationary cupboard?!! Xmas Grin
Give 'em all something, use your partner-people even if it's tokens for Lidl!
CrapWreathKeith is a very witty name change but I did sing Deck the halls non stop over the last week.
Happy 2017 everybody. Am thinking ahead to Easter name change but struggling. LambySchmidtsSmile is the best I've got. There has not been an Easter episode. Ah well. ThorntonsInMySide? Or even my inside. Cake needed. The cadbury's choc has gone, was it something we said?!

CrapWreathKeith · 30/12/2016 22:30

Another vote here for Zombie whether she wants it or not! Smile

akittencalledjesus · 30/12/2016 23:30

Zombie.

I would have picked CrapWreathKeith at any other time, but I think an extra magic painkiller would do the Zombie the world of good.

BeyondIBringYouGoodTidings · 31/12/2016 08:34

I can't choose between those.

But I'm sure I remember it being done by vote (a link to survey monkey?) last year?!

FookyNell · 05/01/2017 23:55

Come on HQ, who won the box of chocs that nobody in the office wanted because they were saving all their syns for gin?!

LornaMumsnet · 06/01/2017 11:22

Apologies!

And the winner is.... Zombie!

We've contacted DeckTheHallsWithLimbsOfZombie and sent out a lovely prize box of chocs that nobody in the office wanted
