At Diablo's request, the "who should change their name" thread

[Paluka]

I nominate IndieMatty for a person who should be forced to change his name. He seems to post the occassional music thread to try to keep up his Indie name, but his other posts are about his job where he works for the man, how comfortable he finds Rockport shoes to be, and how he enjoys hitting balls down at the old drivin range. Indie my ass.

[IndieMatty]

I agree 100%. I [censored] hate my name.

Edit: By the way, download that Closure song I put up, see if you like the post LIHC fo the mid 90s.and Explosions in the Sky are playing Bowery in December.

[Sponger15SB]

I thought you couldn't change your 2+2 name any more.

[tdarko]

i have wanted to change my name for a very long time.

I have no idea if this is true or not. I was just ranting.

He's indie like Adult Alternative music is (Dido, Natalie Merchant) left of center but in a refined non offensive way.

[Patrick del Poker Grande]

I like it. It's like huge guy down the street named Slim.

I'm very sad that this thread has not become one where people complain about someone else's name and then that person tries to defend it but just ends up looking like a loser instead.

i think this is b/c most of us realize that our names our lame and there isn't anything to defend. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

the other swede always confuses me as well, i would like this dual to happen.

I should not have used the same name i used as a kid for MUDs. It [censored] sucks.

Alternatively, you could change your name to Denver Swede and then we could call you DS.

[Voltron87]

i think i could use a name change. voltron was funny as a novelty to me, i didnt realize i was actually going to start being a legitimate poker player and that it would turn out like it has.

[MaxPower]

El Diablo should go back to Ulysses. Ed Miller should go back to MajorKong. JohnnyBoomBoom should go back to Bottles.

[tpir90036]

I would nominate everyone whose name has something to do with poker. Patrick's name is not really what I am getting at either. More like names that include wordage such as "Aces" or "TeddyKGB" or "TheNuts" or "Card Sharp"... you know, stupid stuff like that. Anything along those lines is queercakes and implies that you are a pretty terrible player IMO. It's like wearing a Pearl Jam t-shirt to a Pearl Jam concert. Don't be that guy.

It is primarily for this reason that my name sucks so hard. In fact, I think it's so terrible that it comes around the other side and becomes amusing. To me, at least.

I'm honored to be in the company of those two if even if it has nothing to do with anything meaningful.

I nominate you. I mean, you basically just changed a letter or two instead of making up something quasi-interesting. How weak is that!

My question is who is going to change their name to:

This can be solved by:
a) Avoiding 2+2 people at a 2+2 gathering
or
b) Telling them your actual name and saying "it doesn't really matter" when they ask you your 2+2 name.

I have tried both and they both work well.

Yeah, Mr. Pink sounds like Mr. Pussy. Tell you what, let me be Mr. Purple. That sounds good to me, I'm Mr. Purple.

[jdl22]

I've wanted to change mine for awhile. I used jdl22 because when I started grad school a little over 2 years ago my email address started with jdl22 (my initials are jdl, not sure why the 22).

I would have gone with Jared which is my name, but I tried to create that account a couple months ago and apparently it's taken. Searched for posts and couldn't find any.
