Hey, I'll take it over Sarkeesian threads any day.delta4062 said:
OT: Uhhhhhhhh. Could have gone significantly worse, if the first thread is any indication.
That was the joke I was trying to make. I guess it was a bit weak.Able Seacat said:He is male, Ashley is a unisex name. Like Alex or Danny.Fractral said:And there I'd always assumed you were male.Daystar Clarion said:Why should I?Lucem712 said:It isn't a strange name at all. You, of all people should know about interesting given names, Daystar.Daystar Clarion said:
OT: Pretty good name, interesting but a "normal" surname as to not potentially embarrass your offspring or spouse(s). Congrats and I hope you are satisfied.
Ashley is a perfectly common name in these parts.
Oh sorry, Poe's law and what not.Fractral said:
OT: I'm wondering what the record number of name changes are? Is there a limit to how many times you can change your name?
I knew a guy that had his name legally changed to Jackass. So congrats on picking a better name than him.
To be fair OP most of your original name choices were pretty bad:
Prince Vegeta
Darth Cruxis
Mithos Yggdrasill
Gaius Maxwell at least sounds like an actual name and not something stripped from a fantasy story. I'd still probably go with something more modest than a Roman emperor's name, but it's your decision.
I have to ask, is there a particular reason you chose that?

Y'know... I actually really like that name. And congratulations on not being named Mithos Yggdrasil!
Had to quote you here. Dude, I love that name. Makes me kinda wish I could be named something like that~ Also, I squealed a bit since your first name is the name of the bad guy in one of my fave games, Dust: An Elysian Tail. General Gaius was his name. Either way, great pic, glad you like it :3 (May I ask why you changed it to begin with?)Whatislove said:

Oh come on!
Two pages in and not a single mention of the most absurd (and recent) name change ever?
Beezow?
A Mr. Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop?
I wish I was not telling the truth here.
Congrats on the successful change, may all your subsequent adventures be thusly epic.

Lots of reasons really.Elvis Starburst said:
The main one being I had a super common first name and a ridiculously annoying last name that I had to spell AND pronounce to everyone despite only being 4 letters long.
I never really liked my name, I never felt any sort of connection to it - I guess it's hard to explain to someone who hasn't had the feeling.
Love the tales of series, not quite as much as your self I guess haha. You should have went with Lloyd Mithos!
I remember that thread and Gaius Maxwell is a billion times better than any of the other names you were considering in it, so I have to say good choice! I think that's a really awesome name.
A wise choice in the end I think. It is slightly eccentric, but not so much that you will have to deal with people asking you about it every single time you give your name.
It's also far more interesting than my frequent name changes. I am on my third surname, although the reasons for it are entirely different.
I this thread is any indication, I'd recommend saying the name aloud over writing it down where possible. I am not sure why so many would read it as "gay-us" but, apparently it's not that uncommon.
