My favourite colour is blue, so I had thoughts of SkyBlue before I entered and Edenflower seemed to go with it.<br /><br />I would love to hear what your name is if you are a Disney fairy.

Von Faraway (from faraway) is my Red Hat Society name and seemed appropriate for this activity too as the environment is fun but still a learning one. As for Meridoc limited choice on the list so:. Merry- cheerful- latin connotations with "Hilary" (hilarious etc) and the doc bit being part of the SL name has some clinical connotation! Having spouted all that I hadn't realised just how deep and meaningful some of my decisions are!!Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15660126707555812471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140972025844299279.post-10626824769820189392009-11-02T14:04:19.117-08:002009-11-02T14:04:19.117-08:00I chose my name at a time I didn't know how th...I chose my name at a time I didn't know how things worked. If I was doing things now, I would choose a name that was as similar to my own as possible. I have chosen not to be anonymous in SL - if I was playing fantasty games of some sort, I'd probably choose a really different name.Sarah Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00480597227427423793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140972025844299279.post-51661939556959892982009-10-31T14:06:12.962-07:002009-10-31T14:06:12.962-07:00Hi Willie,

I played around with first names until I found something that I liked. They do have fantasy connotations and it can be quite surreal in second life. I have been invited to go to the cemetary more than once! And I was apporached by an 'adult guide offering lessons'(I have forgotten the term used) to ask if I was over 18, quite scary really.<br /><br />On the upside, Petal Stransky did invite me to the virtual birthing room and met with to 2 other midwives, which was very interesting.Debra's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734435259912143853noreply@blogger.com
