HO HO HO! It’s the most wonderful time of the year - the Mumsnet Christmas Name Change Competition. Xmas Grin

It’s time to get your box of festive puns down from the attic and spend the next three weeks untangling them even though when you put them away last January they were ABSOLUTELY NOT TANGLED.

Ahem. Anyway - we’re after a Christmas-themed name change that is a play on your usual name. To enter, simply post on this thread under your new name.

The competition will run until December 23rd and we’ll announce the winner on Christmas Eve.

Cheers & good luck to all. Xmas Smile

It's not a play on my name because I'm too paranoid not to name change very regularly all the time.

But I hope it counts somehow.

Aka Mummyoflittledragon a doc you don’t believe me: HUMBUG I say.

My bump is now 16 months old though so I'm probably overdue a name change anyway 😂

Thanks, everyone for your wonderfully festive name changes. We've somehow managed to narrow it down to a shortlist, which we'll present to a panel of punning experts at MNHQ and will announce the winner tomorrow.

Good luck and Merry Christmas - ho ho ho.

LadzXmasYouShatonmyThigh · 23/12/2019 20:30

I hope I'm on the shortlist for the panel of cunning* expurgators, MNHQ*.
I'm no mug, I know how the mop flops, you'll choose someone who's chatted shit about kittens or something not dog related.
#draintheswamp
Remember puppies,MNHQ.
They're better than cats.
It's like Boris Vs Jezza all over again.
GET XMAS DONE!
That's all I'm saying.
Also, I don't have a mug.
I'm having to sip tea out of bone china cups, which sounds nice but my little finger is in the cramp and the tea goes cold.
I NEED a mug, I don't want Gin or chocolates. Just a puppy and a mug that will fit through the letterbox.
Ta in advance.

If @LadzChristmasYouShatonmyThigh doesn't win, I'm calling fix! Xmas Wink

WomblingMerryChristmasOfThigh · 23/12/2019 20:32

Oops, spelled your name wrong, Lad, sodding name autocomplete @ isn't working properly Angry

LadzXmasYouShatonmyThigh · 23/12/2019 20:32

Fucked up there with the bolding. Dog's fault, she knocked my hand.
What?!?

LadzXmasYouShatonmyThigh · 23/12/2019 20:35

I love you, Womble. 😋
You can call me anything you like. 💋

TheLidoOfThighs · 23/12/2019 20:59

I hope we don’t have to launch a campaign to make Thikea send you a mug Lad.

LadzXmasYouShatonmyThigh · 23/12/2019 21:23

I don't want a Thikea mug, TL.
Or shark.
A couple of toilet brushes, perchance.

No. I want a Mumsnet Mug.
Here at Chequers we're waited on by the Royal Navy.

ThighThighOfthigh · 23/12/2019 22:52

@YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet - JustineB promised our mate Tig a shark.

ThighThighOfthigh · 23/12/2019 22:53

LAD for KING of the world.

Fix! Fix! We want to vote!

YoHoHoTheGinCatsofThigh · 23/12/2019 23:45

Nothing wrong with cats or kittens. Just saying.
