Heads Up - I Have Changed My Name

signed it Brain? LOL

Doesn't really matter....what's in a name?

But some of the new folks could call you Beth if any old threads are still open and you

signed your name as Beth like they call Sean, Brian..... in the the Artist website thread

...most powerful something one...I forget the thread title... Someone made a comment

and called him Brian the other day because he signed it that Brain back then.

:D

I know that's you (artist formerly known as Beth!) :)

I'm late catching up with this bit of news but it answers my questions...and I love the name. You have so many options to use. Bella, for one is beautiful.

bump

I used to be Maynewearing Gildehardt Winterbotham

Bumping this info up!

I'm thinking we should keep this bumped up for at least a few weeks, eh? ;-)

It's news for me too, I thought, Beth was on vacation and Abbie was a substitute to help out JC. Will take me a while to adjust. I actually like Beth a lot, short and sweet :).

Raisa

Hmmm......somehow I missed this thread.

Well Abbie......I LOVE the name change, but please give me time to adjust. :)

Lol Saigon! Then we would get threads asking what it meant .... or it may b a good idea.. hmmmmmm *thinks about it*

Kathi :) Thank you!

Thanks for explaining! I was wondering what happened. Glad it's all good. Congrats on the new handle!

@Gregory

yeah I would like to see a hyphenated glyph for Abbie -TAFKAB- (the admin formerly known as Beth)! :-))

I am not Italian is why and Shores is my family name :D

Keep the Italian parts, they'll google well. Not sure why a nice Italian girl would want such a British sounding name as "Abbie Shores". But, Lisabetta Eduoardinini, it's whatever makes you happy (that you can spell)

Abbie, your former name always brought to mind the senator's wife here in the US. Now you have a name that is uniquely yours. I've known others who have been brave enough to try name changes, and the changes always seem to suit them best in the long run. I guess nobody knows you like you do.

Darice, as I am a bit of a weird looking person in the real world (all long dresses and shawls, duo toned long hair and no make up) I was told by someone here that it was 'SO much more you than stuffy Elizabeth' LOL

Aloha Abbie, welcome to FAA, so good to make your aquaintance....LOL. Abbie suits you. It's much more Earthy and friendly.

*waves at Thomas*

Congratulations Beth/Abbie!

Ahemmm....

I'm a little confused...

:-)

Ciao BethAbbie!
Raffaella

Haha I wondered who this new Mod was! :$

Well, Beth, if I may continue calling you that, as mentioned in another thread, I do prefer your old name. I've always thought it was a beautiful name and it was, in fact, one we were considering if our son had been a girl.


Hey Gersh... how about "Harry Balzac"?

I'm so glad you explained! I was like "Where's Beth?!"

Jenny - we write my granddaughter's nickname with "z" - Izzy.

Isabella, can you tell us the thought behind the name change? Only if you want to, of course, but I've wondered myself what I would pick if I were ever to change mine...

Very stately. Can I call you Issy?

that would be awesome so many cool toys and wars i could start.

so beth, how long will it take you to tire of the long version of your name and shorten it to a easier to write version? i can see name boxes and checks being a problem, unless they have more space across the pond. hear in the US they are impossibly small.

---Mike Savad

Wow, what does this do to all the search engines? Are you going to retain both names in the tags for continuity?

Looks like Izzy needs to change her gallery names too.

Mike are You going to be the head of MI6? LOL

Mike, you could be "Agent M".

I like "Isabella" - my granddaughter's name is Isabelle.

I said hello Isabella...but is that what you'll go by or one of the others? Can your name be in a different color on here so everyone will know you're the mod?

Abbie!

Short enough for anyone to remember.

that's a really long impossible to remember name... just letting you know... i'm still calling you beth.

if i change my name it will probably be Mike - but in lower case letters mike. simple. i was named Michael, but i found it was too long to spell accurately, so i made it smaller, i still leave out letters. maybe i'll just be called M, but then i'd need to wear a suit all the time.


---Mike Savad

OMG...what Shore is that? I think I need another english lesson LOOL I must say it's very aristocratic name :)

You may recall, I was going to change my first name just because I didn't like it all that much. I changed everything and then just as I was about to go to do it legally, my sons, my Aunt, even old boyfriends....all got upset with me and begged me not to change it, so I didn't.



*edit
Wow! When you went for a change you made it a big one! lol! Hello, Isabella!

I am sure you do not need a tutorial LOL

Suppose I had better let Sean know

Isabella Francesca Abigail Shores...that was my second guess!!


-W

You may need to make us a tutorial on that! :)

Spill it soooooooon some of us take longer to learn that others and we need a head start! :)

so what happens to all those gents that have your old name tattooed to something?

i guess you'll have to contact them and have them cross it out.

---Mike Savad

LOL Mike!

Okay changing VERY soon,... just got to wrap up a few things

Angel?

its not going to be a happy face is it?

---Mike Savad

bethany edwardo?


---Mike Savad

Goddess of the Interwebs?

Or perhaps just a symbol.

Elisabeth Sladen?

LOL my hair is brunette at present with a blond streak either side.

I am not called Rich LOL, sorry

I wonder if anyone (who does not already know) can guess what I chose

Well.... don't leave us in suspense. Who will you be now - & did you dye your hair red ?

Beth,

You're not changing it to Rich Franco are you? Let me know, and I'll be Beth!

Rich

So what did you settle on?
