Ilan Bouchard is an unknown quantity at this point
"Ilan Bouchard" is already taken, if that's what you were thinking.

Awe, dang it, now I'm gonna need another week to come up with something else....

Man, for some reason, when it comes to thinking up nicknames, I become incredibly unimaginative. Any suggestions for me out there?

Something you like followed by "writer" seems quite popular.


BTW, has anyone deleted Silver's account yet so I can be just Silver?

So, Pawn - after much discussion and contemplation, I am renewed with enthusiasm for my original name. I will remain plain, sensible AngieP. Thank you, just the same.

I hate your name too. It's shallow and pretentious, and lacking in imagination. And I can't even be sure how to pronounce it. Ang-ee-ep. Angeep. Ang-i-e-pah. Who knows? And I hate the use of upper case at the end there, where it doesn't belong. It reminds me of some of the dumb marketing names companies come up with for products, where they sling in some upper case letters in silly places because they think it's cool, and it looks like a 12-year-old is head of marketing instead.

I put your current name into a Porn Star Name Generator site and it came up with Lana Strokum. Lana Strokum is a fine name. It's fun, exciting, and says more about a girl than AngieP ever could. If you were to change your name to Lana Strokum, why, I and many like me would fall in love with you in an instant, and your writing would become more marketable overnight.

Vote for change. Vote for Lana Strokum.

Cheers,
Omni
