If you were going to change your name...
What would your new name be?

Since I just had mine done I think I'll stick with Will Parkinson for a while. :-)

3. I think I'd change it to a male name like jamie or sam or taylor. I like it when
girls have a male name. It implies empowerment for me.

4. Bichuan, with the nickname of Bich.
It's culturally inappropriate for me, but I just want to see people hesitate before attempting to pronounce my name.

6. Either Slut Bunwalla or Klingybun Fistelvase.
I don't think I could settle for Engelbert Humperdinck or Gerry Dorsey

However, I could settle for Kheiron.

20. I'd just put my middle name in front. Clay. I like that name. Curt just seems a little worn to me.
But Clay? I can have a whole new universe of possibilities with that name.

God, no. Reality says no. It would just be my life with a new name.

Still...Clay.

Thanks mom.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlkFmtr9fyE

My life was wrapped around the circus.
Her name was Lydia.
I met her at the world's fair in 1900,
marked down from 1940.

Ah, Lydia.
She was the most glorious creature
Under the su-un.
Guiess. DuBarry. Garbo.
Rolled into one.

Oooooooh
Lydia oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia,
Lydia, the Tattooed Lady.
She has eyes that folks adore so,
And a torso even more so.

Lydia oh Lydia, that encyclopidia,
Oh Lydia the Queen of Tattoo.
On her back is the Battle of Waterloo.
Beside it the wreck of the Hesperus, too.
And proudly above waves the Red, White, and Blue,
You can learn a lot from Lydia.

When her robe is unfurled, she will show you the world,
If you step up and tell her where.
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paris,
Or Washington crossing the Delaware.

Oh Lydia oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia,
Oh Lydia the Tattooed Lady
When her muscles start relaxin',
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson

Lydia oh Lydia, that encyclopidia,
oh Lydia the queen of them all!
For two bits she will do a mazurka in jazz,
With a view of Niagara that nobody has.
And on a clear day you can see Alcatraz.
You can learn a lot from Lydia.

Come along and see Buff'lo Bill with his lasso.
Just a little classic by Mendel Picasso.
Here is Captain Spaulding exploring the Amazon.
Here's Godiva but with her pajamas on.

Here is Grover Whalen unveilin' the Trilon.
Over on the West Coast we have Treaure Island.
Here's Najinsky a-doin' the rhumba.
Here's her social security numba.

Oh Lydia, oh Lydia that encyclopidia,
Oh Lydia the champ of them all.
She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet.
The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat.
And now the old boy's in command of the fleet,
For he went and married Lydia.

I said Lydia
{He said Lydia}
They said Lydia
{We said Lydia}
La La!

And if people shouted that name too much whenever I went out, then I would change it to

Raymond Luxuryyacht (pronounced "Throatwarbler Mangrove")

My state capital and the street I grew up on.

Great way to determine your stage name

29. I'd go back to the original name my great-grandfather was born with.
He changed the spelling when he immigrated in 1895 and it got misspelled again on my father's birth certificate which never got fixed and got passed on to me.
