Name that Dracoluvah

 Identity crisis!

I don't think that  really fits who I am anymore.
I had chosen that name back pre-slash days, when I was a DM/HG shipper.
Last night I finally felt that I had come up with a perfect name, that is until I told my husband.
He yelled at me because my last name is part of it.
So now, I'm tired, and cranky, and sad, and cranky, and have ( Read more... )

I'm all for names that don't indicate affinities, just in case one's tastes change. Could you use the name you thought of but translate your last name into something else?

Possibly.
I do agree with you about not indicating an affinity. Hence my choice to want to change Dracoluvah. I mean I like him ... but I also like Renji, and Ichigo, and Severus ....

I went for the name of a goddess that most closely matched me as a person. Of course, it was taken, but I added numbers and voila! Might be worth a try.

PHOTOGRAPHY/SCRAPBOOKING:
ATHENA (a-THEE-nuh; Roman name Minerva) was the goddess of crafts and the domestic arts and also those of war.

READING/WRITING/ART:

Saraswati is the goddess of art and literature, the mother of wisdom and knowledge.

WRITING:
In Egypt the art of writing was the gift of the Goddess Isis, Maat, Menos, or Seshat - no point confusing people with a similar name; in Rome, that of the Goddess Carmenta or the Fata Scribunda ... (page wouldn't open for the rest).

Thanks for the goddess info.

Somehow I feel far from goddess status on anything I do.

Okay ... to qualify, I figured it wasn't so much to say, "Look at me! I am goddess, hear me roar!" It was more to empower my inner writer.

There. That makes me sound much less arrogant and full of myself. Hee!

Oh my goodness! No! I didn't mean it as a backhanded compliment to you. I just don't even feel worthy to even attempt the writing craft.

YOU ... YOU are amazing!

And it makes sense to pick a name with meaning behind it. I was just having a low self esteem moment!
