Faire Names

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

I've already lined out a name for my friend...Sir Stumpy McDickschitcken... although if everyone calls him that, he may not be my friend for long. 

[raevyncait]

When I was planning to join the IWG, I decided that I needed a Faire name and asked a few friends (ren and non-ren) for suggestions and was gifted with Raevyn, to which I added Caitrina as a nod to my Celtic heritage. I think most people I've met from these forums call me RaevynCait(kate).  Several of my fellow wenches call me Raevyn, others call me by my given name (Raenell), Rae, or Raerae. I answer to any and all of them. As long as you don't call me Nellie, I'm good with it.

As for other things that have been added along the way, PipeWench is the result of being a wench who loves the bagpipes and was gifted by a fellow Roguey. Rogueys are fans of The Rogues, as are Roguettes. BoobEnabler was bestowed by a friend after I pointed out some cleavage that was practically in his face but he somehow hadn't seen.  Center of all Evil was bestowed in '08 by Mad Owen Fisher at Scarby. I'm also a member of Clan MacGiggle, and Dame of the (now unofficial and sort of mobile) Hostel at Scarborough.

[Welsh Wench]

I started out as the Welsh Wench but Athena started calling me Wenchie and it seems to have stuck.

[Lady Nicolette]

Mine was bestowed on me by my first husband, who I first spied at Faire when I was 15.  My name is either Nickie or Nicolette legally (via birth and baptismal certificates, respectively), but he always called me "Lady Nicolette," and it stuck for Faire.  The romance ended, and he has sadly since passed away, but Lady Nicolette has stayed with me ever since.

[Lady Nicolette]

And Wenchie you are, because it's just you!  I didn't know our friend, Athena, started it, though.  Love you both!

[Captain Jack Wolfe]

Mine started out as a user name on another board I belong to, the Pyracy Pub.  I used the name "Mad Jack" when I started going to faire, and it stuck.  Then when Wenchie and I started writing "El Lobo del Mar" together, we spun the idea into a full fledged character and gave him a last name.  Hence, Mad Jack Wolfe.

Thanks, Wenchie!   

[Lady Nicolette]

Hey, that's not a faire name.  That IS your name.  Isn't it?

[Reaper]

Up until 03 I didn't really have a faire name. Finally bought by armor and got told I looked like some kind of death incarnate. That reminded my of Piers Anthony's book "On a Pale Horse" and the Grim Reaper which got shortened down to "Reaper".

Plus I was on SWAT for 7 years and was the 1st man who went through the door. People used to say I had a "death" wish. Guess it all fits in the scheme of things huh?

Wait till you meet my bro... it fits him well.  I'll just have to make sure he passes out before i do. He might wake up with extra (sharpie) tattoos or decorated with the vilest things i can find.  That'll teach him to get his garb together.   I make a good best friend, wot?

[MacKee]

Personally I'm quite fond of 'MacCracken' but that is an actually surname 

[DonaCatalina]

Hey Bellevivre! I am living proof that you CAN pick a Faire Name and have it stick! Martin Montgomery at your sevice at any faire I attend and irl Monte Martin. Just pick one name and as you attend more Faires the people will add "Extras" as they see fit. Some of the other "Extras" I have picked up are The Marshall of McLotofus, The Lord of the Dance (Please Don't Ask) and Hey,Big Guy!

You forgot Martin the Scribe.

I haven't been given a Faire name that I know of. The one I use is the name of my persona.

OMG!!! Is he hot?

They also call me BlueZipCode.... I'm sure it's an inside joke of SOME sort....

[Welsh Wench]

Um...this is embarrassing but I honestly thought 66669 was your zip code! So..we just started calling you that.

Chalk it up to a blonde moment.
