$100,000 For A Name Change ?

[AngieDoogles]

I have no idea Janet. I'd probably have Brendon pick or I'd make a poll here. lol. How pathetic am I?

Friends in college who planned to marry were not sure about changing their names to each others so the groom-to-be sought something different. Star Trek must have been his inspiration because he wanted to be The Starwalkers or something like that! lol (They broke up about a month before the wedding!)

You bet I would! $100K is nice.

I've changed my name a few times.

I was born Judith Lois Bloom; called Judy. I married ex#1, became Judy L. Weiner,
got divorced, became Judy L. Bloom-Weiner legally, but Judy Bloom for real. I never took ex#2's name. When we got divorced, I legally changed my name to Judith Lois
Eve Bloom. Everyone knows me as Judy Bloom, and I never bothered changing
it from Judy Weiner on anything like my license, etc.

I think I deserve $100,000 just for remembering all of that. Where do I call for my money? (I share!).

To feed my family, to secure a roof over our heads, I'd put my husband in for it!

I am published under my name so long term it feels like it might create some career difficulties. On the other hand, I do have pseudonyms... Maybe I could use my existing name as a pseudonym in which case - who cares!

Sure, I'd do it! I am actually in the process of changing my [las] name now as it is, so why not get $100k in the process? That would be verrry niiiice.

Oh Judy, i would love to have it done, but i read in your post how painfull it is, i'm such a chicken, but i'm sure self medication> < will help some.

Sheryl, i wish someone would put out my clothes for the day so i wouldnt have to stand in front of my closet trying to decide which pant/jeans with what color top

Thanks, Judy! Yeah, I'm not on here much these days...but that doesn't mean I don't care about my 4wt ladies! :-) I'm rarely even @ my house these days. Busy busy busy! But it's good that I keep myself busy right now, it helps me cope with the emotional roller coaster of divorce. But all things considered, truly, I'm doing pretty well. My parents tell me they're proud of me and how well I'm handling it all.

I would definetly do it! And name myself something i like!

What would you like to be called, FairyDust?

Wow Judy! Impressive that you can remember all that! I've only had my name changed once, and I only changed my last name to Bren's last name.

[Mandy]

At least you never got bored with your name, Judy For sure you deserve the $$ for remembering them all

[DianaB]

I would change my name too, in a heartbeat!!! I like my name but for that much money I'd definitely change it. I'd come up with something that I really liked........like............uuuuummmmmm.......... .......hmm..........Ok, Ok........I need some time to think on this one! I really like my two youngest daughter's names. One is Dae Lynn and the other is Jaci Kay. Maybe I could come up with a cute name like one of theirs. I definitely don't want my maiden name back. My father worked hard but his relatives were not thought well of in our community so you can keep my maiden name!!!!

I guess it looks like so far Judy is going to get the money. Will you fly us to your place and show us around?
