Please feel free to borrow this. But, still like the whole Bagman thing - also is helpful when your friends want to refer to you. In my hilariously cool and with it circle of married friends (more a line than a circle as most of our friends are far too dysfunctional to hold down a proper relationship) we refer to each other as the Raceys (Ryan/Casey marraige) or the Delgorrians (Delaney/McGorrian marraige). Its what the hip cats are doing these days...Domestic Oubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17298706907126418711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6862054200092259163.post-49377622174452605242009-05-04T15:56:00.000-07:002009-05-04T15:56:00.000-07:00When I got married I did as all others at the time...When I got married I did as all others at the time did (although it killed me to leave my own name behind) and took the name of my consort. Much to my disgust I found myself covered with embarrasment for years every time I absent-mindedly put my née name on the end of forms - like collecting childrens allowance for instance. (It was a very long time ago, I thought the whole world would guess I was an unmarried mother of six!)<br />Would you consider using some of the other letters of your joing alphabetical collection? I think Lionnal has a certain ring to it!<br /><br />But still, posterity has to be catered for, and in the interest of those tracing their roots several generations from now,and hoping to find a celebrated novelist, maybe you should keep your own name!Drama Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13432851717594794217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6862054200092259163.post-72228905499488350662009-05-04T12:37:00.000-07:002009-05-04T12:37:00.000-07:00Plus it fits well with the phrase "Busy Bagman" o...Plus it fits well with the phrase "Busy Bagman" otherwise I'd have to go as "Manic Manbag" - which doesn't sound half as nice...Niamh Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06519443787482685320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6862054200092259163.post-41209758219358408322009-05-04T12:11:00.000-07:002009-05-04T12:11:00.000-07:00Manbag is a little metrosexual - not that there is...Manbag is a little metrosexual - not that there is anything wrong with that - just depends on what image you're looking to put out there...
