Name choices

[Guest Vicky]

I have been wondering for a while how should I use my name?

When I registered long time ago, I called myself Lily. Now I am not sure if I want to be called by Lily.

I would rather use Vicky, or Viki, or Vicki. I may still use Lily as a middle name.

I know it is very personal, but I would like to see how you think about it?

Thank you and Hugs,

Vicky (Vicki?) (Viki?)

Well of course I am partial to the Vicky, but that is my legal name now.  Have you read enough of my stuff here to really get mistaken for something wacky that I have written??  Actually, too many people even here misspell my name with the "i" at the end instead of the "y".  It is up to you, but if you are keeping the Lily as part of your name, the Vicki spelling would be a little better, or change the Lily to Lillian and you are back to the whole range.

We don't allow exact duplication of the same name. We have several variations of the name Vicky-Vicki already. If you can come up with a unique variation, we'll gladly change it for you.

Hi MaryEllen,

I was a little bit silly asking. I am pretty sure that will stay with the traditional "Vicky" spelling, that actually I like a lot  thank you,

Vicky

No you weren't being silly.  It was just a question you had and you reached out for others opinions.  That's fair.  

As to an update to a "correct" user name you might consider Vicky with another initial after it or a number or word.  The number could represent anything, a number representing an alpha character (3=C). A word can be your favorite thing (sing, hike, cook, etc).

Just offering a suggestion.

I go back here nearly 6 years, but you see how I had to construct my Username here to get it into the system.  The SGV at the end of my username is actually the abbreviation for an area of CA that I live in.  When I joined the simple Vicky was already in use.  I just ran Vicky in the site search for members, and there are now only two of us with any variation on the name but at the minute, not just Vicky all by it's lonesome. Last summer we did a big site server move and a huge number of inactive users deleted, so Vicky (whoever that was) had not posted in a certain number of years here and was dropped.  I am active simply as Vicky on two other Trans* related sites but have been VickySGV here since my join up date.  Check the SEARCH function for yourself to see if you get a different result than I did.  Over on Face Book I am friends with another, younger and cuter person with my exact same name so I am not fussy.

"A rose by any name" could be any Vicky, Vicki or Viki.   Maybe even Vickie

It would appear that the stand alone name of Vicky is available. If there are no objections from the other Vickys, I'll do the change for you.

I've always liked Vickie, but that's not an option ?
