Not so much funny as sad - when I joined I used 'Doc' because that's what I get called most of the time in RL. Seemed like a good nickname.
Newbie, didn't know the majority seem to play cross gender.
Didn't know what I was getting into either... Don't TALK to me about complications!

I'm pretty much stuck with 'Doc' now, as a lot of people know me as Doc in SL and I've got too much tied up in that name to start again. *SIGH*

On the bright side, everything's working out fine now - but initially, oh dear!

Amazingly, nobody thinks my name is funny. They just think it's a muffin-eating reference.

As soon as I saw the last name Malaprop was available I checked, but no one had taken Mrs Malaprop yet.

I just tried to sign my brother up the other day, simply because I wanted to force him to use the name SleazyP Martini (from the Cherry Poppin' Daddies song Pink Elephant) but Martini wasn't offered any longer.

Now I guess I'll let him pick his own name, which won't be nearly as fun.

Dunno, I think choosing names is a rather serious business.. deciding how you would be known to the rest of the game world from here to eternity.

Not something to be taken lightly by any account.. To frivolously waste this for the chance at a cheap laugh seems somewhat immature to me..

Phark...
