name change. again.

[arcanetrivia]

Yeah, well. I got problems. What of it? I finally felt in my gut that grandiose names like "esmestrella" and "elethian" aren't for me. shyfoxling (shy foxling) technically exceeds my limit of two syllables, but I think it's simple enough and something that's not that likely to go out of my mental style.

(Will change Dreamwidth name as soon as that function is available.)

New name, same person...thanks for letting us all know! :)

Shy_foxling sounds rather cute, actually. What made you decide to pick that username in particular? Do you have a soft spot for foxes?

Do you have a soft spot for foxes?

That too. I tried to pick something I wasn't ashamed of, that was likely to stay relatively true, and that I didn't feel silly attaching fanfic to or imagining people calling me by (e.g. at a con).

Ahh, I like it! It's cute, but not cutesy, which is an important distinction IMO. :D

Always go with your gut feeling. Personally, I liked the grandiose names, but then, overkill -is- my style. I hope this one is a better fit for you.

The reason I picked MimiManderly for myself is so that I wouldn't HAVE to change it. Since it's a combination of my name (Mimi) and the name of my "estate" *cough* (Manderly), I figured I'd be less apt to have to change it if my interests ever changed. Hell, I never even changed my last name when I got married. It's odd that I can change my appearance or the decor of my home at the drop of a hat, but I'm adamant about my name. Ah, well, we all have our quirks.

I always felt like people would be expecting something different from names like that.

mimimanderly doesn't strike me as too fancy, merely as descriptive: your name and the place you live. It'd be like me calling myself lisasunnyvale or something (as our house lacks a name). But yeah, hopefully this is one I won't get the urge to change again, as I've tried to pick things that will stay true and which I wouldn't feel ridiculous having someone call me by.

Thanks for the heads up.

I really like this one. It's simple, but very descriptive too, and it is definitely not too grandiose. Perfect!

[coyotegoth.livejournal.com]

Pleased to re-meet you.

You seriously think that'd be an issue? ^_-
