Forget trends and the opinions of others; don't worry about rude nicknames or how popular (or unpopular) it may be....If you could change your name to ANYTHING, what would it be?

I would change my last name to Genest, and I'd leave my middle name and first name the same.

Probably Elizabeth. SOmething long but respectable, with tons of nickname-possibilities.

I like my name (Lindsay Rebecca). If I had to change it, though, I'd probably go with Eliza, which is my favorite name.

I don't think I would change it.

Mine is 19. first name alone is 8. I guess I don't know what it would be like to be in your situation, but I love my name.

My real name is Caitlin, and I go by Caisey, which I love. But I also would love to be named Elizabeth or Gracelyn.

Coincidentally, I'd have the same initials. I'd go from Sarah Lesley to Stacie Lynne.

Alainah (Uh-Lay-Nuh) with the nickname Lainey. I think I look like a Lainey more than a Christina

I'd love to have a boy name... like Taylor or Ryan. I'm sure if I had it though I might not like it. I hated Nicole while growing up, but love going by Nikki. I think Samantha is sexy. Don't know why. :-)

I'm Holli and I would like to be Hollis. I met a Hollis a few years back and I loved it.


My favorite name in the whole world is Ava (from the Smashing Pumpkins song "Ava Adore") and I was completely heartbroken when it became as popular as it did. I would never use it for a child of mine, but I could be talked into using it as my own name : )

I actually am the few lucky ones to love my name already- Raquel- but I guess I have always loved the name Hera as well ;P I think I would really love that name if I was given it as well.

Ooh ooh, a random-noun name! Like Candle Alamo Spicer ... or Spring Nut Pistachio... although that sounds rather like an ice-cream flavour (yeah, *that's* the only thing wrong with it...)

This is a fun game!

If I could choose any name, I'd probably go with Hero. I don't find myself particularly heroic, but I can imagine that being my name. I do like my middle name (Renee' - although I like my first name, Lindsey, as well) and I don't think it sounds TOO terrible with it. The R sound is rather annoying (my last name starts with an R, and so does my SO's) so I might rethink that middle name.

Hero Alexis? I've always loved the letters A and X. That gets both in and doesn't sound terrible.

I like my name. But just for fun, I would change my name to Nelly. I think it suits my personality, or at least part of my personality. And I like the name Nell. Maybe I would pick Lulu because I think it's playful and somewhat versatile.

I love my name [Kate Elizabeth], but if I had to change it, sensibly I'd change it to something like Katelyn Imogen Morris.
I love my first name too much to change it drastically, Imogen becasue its my favourite girls name & I'm not allowed to use it and Morris because its my boyfriends surname!

If I was going to go for an unsensible name [very unlike me!] maybe Athena Danger, or Aphrodite Danger :D

I'd change my last name, probably. But I wouldn't change my first and middle name. I'm not a big fan of my middle name, but it goes well with my first name. And my first name fits me.

I used to pretend I was named Sarah or Caitlyn or other names. But now as an adult- no. They're all right, but I don't think I'd make a good Sarah or anything else.

There are lots of fun and interesting suggestions!!

My name is ok, I'm just starting to like it (Jessica). When I was a kid I wanted to change my name to Jacinta or Jasmine... now, if I had to, i would choose something a little different like Lacey, Xanthe, or Tully... or something a little more masculine like Ryan, Dorian, Tate or Ari.

Xanthe Dorian Tate would be cool now I think about it...

I've kind of grown into my name, but if I could choose it, I think I would settle for something more common. Perhaps Natalie?

My name is Stephanie.
I would much rather be an Eve or Iris.

I love my name, and its meaning fits me. I can't think of another girls' name I would choose. However, if I had been born a boy, I would have been named Stephen, and I would probably want to change it to Gabriel or Brian, or some other name with mythological/Biblical connotations. I like star names.

I love my first name, Alyssa so I'd probably keep it even though I don't really look like an Alyssa. I'd change my middle name and last name because I am named after my grandmas (Jean and Jeanette) and one of my grandma's is a complete bitch so I don't want to be named after her anymore. I'd gladly change my last name because I believe it is cursed and plus my bitchy grandma has the same last name. What would I change it to? Hmm, Templeton is my favorite last name so I'd go with that. Middle name is tough. I like Morgan, but I think Morgan Alyssa Templeton sounds better than Alyssa Morgan Templeton, so I'd go with Morgan Alyssa Templeton.

My name is Melissa. Plain old, boring Melissa. I hate it. People tell me I look like a Melissa, but that doesn't make me like it any more than I already do, haha.

My parents were thinking about naming me Cymru (pronounced Kim-ree), which is the Welsh word for Wales. They would have put the original spelling on my birth certificate, but spelled it Kymri for everyday use. I really like it, and I wish they had name me that instead.

But what name out of all the names in the world would suit me best? I can't really decide. I'd have to think about it for a while, haha.
