just wondering if anyone has any tips on choosing a new burly name? Am using my own name at the mo as my burly name was Scarlett but I saw someone on the site with the name Scarlet when I first joined so I didn't want to use it anymore! Been pondering over it for weeks, just not getting anywhere! Need something that reflects my performing character-cute n kooky, bit cheeky, kind of a cross between Columbia in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Barbara Windsor in the Carry On films! You see my difficulty! Heeeeelp! Ta.

Lots of people take inspiration from
first pets names
mothers maiden names
first street name
name of first cuddly toy

hope that helps x x x

Some of the names are quite good at least as a starting off point.

Good luck Miss Glasspool and remember to research your name thoroughly before using it. Theres nothing worse than deciding on the perfect name then finding out its already taken.

I found one that could work for you, how about Jolie d'Vivre? Merry Topps? Check the link - these are some of the names they came up with.

That is class Miss Blush!

I do think you should celebrate this connection though by incorporating it into your routines. Maybe they would sponsor you for bringing some elegance and style to cider? Its worth a try. You could perform with a giant silver tankard of fresh sweet cider.

I would pay to see that!

Hurray! Thanks lovely people, got lots of ideas now-quite liked the Merry Tops suggestion, also Fifi Frou-frou, Cherry Spice, Fifi Petite (cos I am), and Trixie Twinkle (one I made up all by myself!)

Expect to see me with a cheeky new name soon! xx
