there's a ton of metropolitans.

the ones I've met seem to be like me, busy, explorative, excited about the possibilities of life in SL.

The only Lamberts I know are myself and Jack. I think there's two or three more out there - but the rest all seem to be inactive.

The Surname 'Lambert' takes it's name from "Lamb Herd" or "Land Bright".

I guess I can live with being a Sheepherder. Now, where did that pesky Schwan go....? :D

Well, dogs, you know, DO that sheep herding thing . . .

Weeblers are sneaky.




Dear Mr. or Mrs. Ingrid,

I must disagree with your assessment of the Weebler family heritage. The Weebler family tree hosts a number of high profile people throughout history who, in an effort to evade the law, changed their names. PT Barnum, Benedict Arnold, Joseph Goebbels, and Ann Coulter are but to name a few. In future I would request that you research the rich contributions of the Weebler family and, if possible, loan them money before disparaging them.

Yours truly,
Amy Weebler

I think I have answered this one in other threads. The answer is. . .wait.

Oh, not 'Roo.'?

Dang. :(

Here is a website that gives the meaning behind names, but some of the names in SL don't have an exact matching meaning.

For example:
EDAV was not found in this database. Names that sound similar to EDAV:
ADVA f Jewish
ATEFEH f Iranian

and

ROARK was not found in this database. Names that sound similar to ROARK:
RUARC m Irish
RURIK m Russian

http://www.behindthename.com/


Roark might be "Mr Roarke" from Fantasy Island. http://imdb.com/title/tt0077008/

Edav might be a developer called Dave mixing his letters? :)

Altho it's not, it'd be good if it was taken from http://www.galleryserpentine.com/. A shop in Sydney where some of our clothes were made for our wedding :)

Foo and Bar are generic terms used in examples :)

If you do FOO then BAR will result. (Probably expanded from FUBAR).
Perhaps also "Foo Fighters" being UFO's.

No comment. ;)

Actually, the name was closest to RL one, that's it. And Alan happens to be one of my common RPG/LARP first names.

I originally chose Seraph because it suited the first name and (hopefully) myself. Not the other way around ;)

The only other Seraph I met in SL either adopted me (Robin) or exchanged ideas with me (Kage)... And I haven't seen them in a LOOOONG time. Where o where are my brethren ?

For example, on initial thought one would think a 'Codesmith' could possibly be of a different personality than a 'Casanova'.


Shhhh, I'm trying to concentrate here. I'm working on a seduction algorithm, but there are too many axis in my n-dimensional matrix.
