I may have to change my name...

Woo hoo, just sold my Beemer, the guy is picking it up on Tuesday night! So being called Beemer will be kinda odd now...

But I don't fancy being called Goose... or LOOSE, which is my number plate...!

What about "Gander" ??

**merv** · 15th January 2006, 17:25

After what you told me at Sawyers about what others thought you meant by being married but love singles "Loose" sounds OK doesn't it. We won't tell Andy.

"There can be only One" (line from Highlander) Beemer! :spudbn:

What's wrong with being called loose? At least people are still calling you... wait until you get old and people stop calling...

How about.............. "Formally known as Beemer"

**Coyote** · 15th January 2006, 19:53

Spruce Goose?

**Beemer** · 15th January 2006, 19:54

I could call myself Lotto - because now I have sold the bike, I feel a bit like I have won Lotto!

Or "Not Scared" because now I can tell my mother I have a new bike - well, I've actually had it since our honeymoon last April but as I owe her some money, I hadn't told her!

As for you, Merv, you'll keep! Just because someone figured that "married but love singles" meant something a little more playful!

But I can't think (or type, thank heavens for the backspace key...) straight as I have been celebrating with a wine or ten, so I'll go away and have a little deliberation - while watching Amelie, great movie if you haven't seen it.

Perhaps something befitting my age, no wait, Old Rider is already taken!

At least you know how to celebrate though!

How 'bout SuGoosie?

...Just a suggestion

Lucy Goosey?

**Beemer** · 15th January 2006, 20:26

I like Spruce Goose - although as my beloved pointed out, didn't it only fly once? Oo er!

I don't want to go with Lucy Goosey as all the old guys look at it now and say "is your name Lucy?" whereas all the young guys go "loose, I like it!"

Even Spruce would be good on its own - too big for a bike plate though, so I'll stick to LOOCE.

Would be a really confusing place if we changed our names, everytime some major event happened in our lives. Imagine having to post your license in for a name change every other week. Still that could be quite cool.

Haven't had a blue ninja for 5 years....tried Black Mille, but people kept reading the last name as Millie and I got a few strange pms. Too much hassle to change the name everywhere in internet land so left it alone.
