Raiinstorm's post about renaming herself made me wonder what everyone else would call themselves.

What would you rename yourself, even if you like your current name?

Everyone's going to be shocked, but I would love to be named Esther. I think it's a gorgeous name with a gutsy lady behind it, and the nickname Esti is fabulicious!

That, or Hanna, my late granny's name, pronounced more like the Hebrew Chana, but I'm saving that for a daughter :)

My name is Eva, by the way.

Esther reminds me of The Bell Jar, and that reminds me of a crazy woman. So it doesn't strike me as a good name. Sorry =/

It's all good, I know barely anyone likes it!

And more than the TBJ connection, and ester is an organic compound that gives things a fruity smell.

:) Watch out or I'll smack you upside the head with the Handbag of Doom!

(Obviously I love it because of the biblical Esther - but yeah, it brings up lots of interesting images :) )

I love Esther because it's one of my best friends names. She's totally fabulous and she goes by Esti too so I tip my hat to you, it's a great choice :D

Yay! Thanks. I feel like everyone hates Esther so it's nice to hear it's not true :)
