Help me choose my new user name!

Now that I've relocated from Oregon to Minnesota, "Leftcoast" isn't such an appropriate name for me anymore.

Or is it? Should I keep it, geographic accuracy be damned?

Or shall I become something else?

Note carefully: I have already rejected "Lydia Lutefisk."

Here are the choices:

1. Keep the old name.
2. Lydia Lefse (Lefse is a Norwegian potato tortilla)
3. Lydia LandOLakes (Yes, it's a company, but it is a farmers' cooperative)
4. Lydia Lakewalker (not because I am carrying the "Imitation of Christ" to absurd lengths, but because one of the best and most popular things to do for exercise in this neighborhood is walk/run/bike the 2.5 miles around the nearest lake.)
5. Your suggestions

...you can be Lydia Leftcoast and live in MN.

Stupid typos!

And it's got very nice flow...

;-)

But I voted for LandOLakes because people will catch on quicker. My best friend grew up in MN so I know all the lingo.

just Lydia ? It is a lovely name all by itself

becuase of the old trick you could do with the butter boxes.

I must encourage you to take up the moniker.

(A little butter, a little brown sugar... mmmmm....)

:shrug:

Unless you have your heart set on alliteration.

Location is a state of mind. :D

or Lydia Panties. Then you could hang out with Underpants. Maybe even borrow and modify his cool picture.

LOL that is so slyly funny

Welcome to DU:hi: New Guy

(:( ) then I say leave well enough alone.

"Freedoms Child " from the land of Hubert and paul.

or Pawlenty, or (insert MN Repuke here; the homophobe legislator might work)

because you left the cost. :)

I'm half Norwegian :-), but I voted to keep the old name. I think you are better off keeping the original because that is what you are known by here. :-)

I'm often mesmerized by your posts, and only in a good way! :D

Welcome to MN, by the way! It's great to get more Democrats here as we can vote out the vermin that Rick Khan openly invited in 2002...

a ring to it! Or straight to the punch Lydia Lyesoakedfish.

Could keep Lydia drop geography and go for descriptive.. LovelyLydia... locquaciousLydia... LiberalLydia... LiteralLydia?.... Lots of potential...

My Friend! :hi:

in favor of keeping my old name! That's a landslide by any reckoning.

Besides, if KCDem can live in Texas and Liberal Texan can live in Florida, I guess I can be a "leftcoaster" living in Minnesota!

Oh heck, keep the same name. The leftcoast is really a state of mind rather than a location.

it's part of you - and part of all of us. You could always change the capital letters to read Lydia leftCoast -which would be accurate, yet keeping your name intact.

Or you could just leave it alone and ignore morans with suggestions!

:thumbsup:

not sure why.

I like that

Show some MN pride, lol.

My second choice was Lydia Lovelace.

Just because...
