It is interesting how our names become who we are and, over time, wrap themselves around us.
I will never regret calling myself nickyminiskirt, eventhough it was a spur of the moment thing when faced with a blank TINT box requesting a name....
How long ago was that ? I can't remember ...
I am now my self and I am happy with myself and my name.
Nickyminiskirt was created in the year Zero and lives now, in the year 2011 !
Be scared, be very scared !!!!!

I chose the name Zoe about 7 years ago when i joined my first tg wed site .
the reason being it was the the last letter in the alphabet ....the name went well for many years ...then i join another site annd got hassle of some so i changed my name too Anushka Noosh ..I changed my pictures everything to look different .Thats kinda when the babooshka thing kicked in ! As well as being a great song by Kate Bush ....I always wanted to be called Zoe again and thats when Zoe Babooshka was kinda born i spose ........And yes im completely bonkers x

I tried to go for something a little bit different from the norm seeing I saw lots of Clare's (which is also my wifes name), Lucy's, Mandy's etc. The surname boringly enough is my surname anyway as I didn't see a reason why I should dissociate myself from who I am.

I just tried to find a name that resembles my male name. Not perfect, but I got used to it by now. :-)

I've always admired Chrissy Hynde and its a simple cute diminutive of my birth name and I'm happy with it, the Aitch is simple the first letter of my surname.

Always liked the name Dawn and Donna. Nothing to do with my own name, not even close. Dated a couple of gals back in the day, Dawn and Donna. Liked them, mimicked them, took the best parts and came up with Dawna. Who knew?
It was allways going to be Xena from you guest it Xena Warrior Princess, as for the mistress bit I don't use it as a second name just had to some thing.

My name came from 'Hairdressers' in the Yellow Pages...................... Maybe you can go upmarket?? Try veterinary surgeons?
K, hey Julie sorry I called you Julia in my other response post
I asked my parents, just thought it was up to them, they named me when born so they should name me again.
