Depends on when. When I was 12 I was running around calling myself things like "Indigo," and "Sasha." When I was 25 I was calling myself "Truck." Now I find using my given name seems to satisfy me just fine.

I can't imagine having to pick my own name. I'm so bad at making decisions. I agonize over stupid things like which color shirt to buy. Having to decide something that I would have for the rest of my life would drive me crazy. However, I am partial to the name Elizabeth. It's so long and pretty.

fooyun- LOL

I have enough trouble getting people to spell my last name right, I like having such a simple first name.

Owen makes me think of the guy that helps Mickey and Mallory escape from prison in Natural Born Killers.

I would have eventually picked what I use as an alias, which I'm not going to disclose here :)

Kadai: There's a great James Taylor song about his (dead) pet pig called "Mona". Don't know that that helps any...

Hunter: I'm *so* surprised! I'd never in a million years think you liked that name... (just kidding!) *wink*

well, I guess I *can* choose my first name... I mean, I can change it legally and all. Why bother, though? It's my name; any other name would do about as well but no better.

I'm not particularly fond of my name, but it *is* my name after all, so it's hard to say. I definitely would have picked a different middle name, but what I have no idea.

I've always liked Zachary. I don't know why.

I wish my name were something less "prissy" and maybe a bit less common than Susan/Sue/Susie, but I don't know what I'd choose. I would think it'd be a little difficult for an adult to change their first name.

You could just tack "Runaround" in front of it (even if it's not accurate - let them wonder) *wink*

I like that song, eris! *smile* It's not accurate though. I'm more faithful than a panting little puppy dog.

I mean more like a puppy who only wants to sit on one person's lap and nobody else's. MY SO gets really tired of it and locks me in the kennel. *wink*

I would like my middle name to be my first. Jennifer is just too common.
