Reverb 23

Let’s meet again, for the first time. If you could introduce yourself to strangers by another name for just one day, what would it be and why? (Author: Becca Wilcott)

Excellent question in general; for me, though, irrelevant, because I think my given name is just perfect and am exceedingly vain about it. I don’t even like terms of endearment–Rebecca or Becky or even RR is preferable to me to generics like “honey,” “sweetie,” etc.

However, Scott once pointed out that, as I am a rose, my evil alter would necessarily be a thorn. “Nina” is the name I use when I need a pseudonym (don’t get excited; usually has something to do with a videogame), so I do think if I ever turn evil, I would probably use “Nina Thorne.”

It’s good to have a plan for a life of evil, just in case.
