my employers want me to change my name

alcxxk [Edit] [Delete] 15:26, 15 April '07

i work in a small office (less than 10 people). my brother works there two, and two of the three bosses are brothers. one of them has the same first name as my brother.
so there's two daves, two people with one surname and two with another.

i only started friday, so they think that it'd be easier for everyone and save a lot of confusion if i just adopted a different surname for when i'm at work.

but i cant think of anything.
i cant even just use my mum's maiden name cos my brother is already using that for other things connected to work.

their suggestion was just to use my middle name, James, as my surname.

we've also gone through general puns on "chris" - so "mass" and "tianity" are on the cards, Mass being probably the forerunner at the moment.

i'm also thinking of a ridiculously "exciting" name, like "bazooka"
or naming myself after someone cool, like Bowie.

it also should be easy to spell.
and memorable.

so suggestions will really be taken into account. GO!
