I'm Lady Phyllis of Peter-Morrison

These types of games always fun to do! Although my new surname sounds like a clothing-designer.

Lady Joyce Spook-Derby! I think the Spook part gives it extra class :D

Lady Vi of Willy-Washington at your service. (But I must confess, I have arranged an assignation and will not be in attendance.)

this is a variation on the "find your porn-star name" game that went round a few years ago; similar set-up, except it was - if I remember rightly - your first pet's name and then your mother's maiden name. There was also a Star Wars name game but that was a bit more complicated; it was something like the last 3 letters of your surname, then first 2 letters of your first name, and then some other bits that I can't remember!

Using a pet's name certainly does add a nice "flavor" to the names. I had a cat once named Bunny, that would have been a GREAT addition to my "royal" name :D - but since she wasn't my first pet that would have been cheating. :(

I was born in Alaska and I can't remember the street we lived on, we moved when I was just about to turn 4 and I don't remember the name of my first pet, sigh!

Well that's not very nice, *pout*! When I was a teenager I gave myself the title Sonja, Princess of York, which then led to my other main nickname, The White Rose. So ha!

Ok! So are there any Americans left in America? It seems to me from watching the BBC today, that most Americans are over here for the wedding!

If you're part of the minority that is not over here, what are you going to be doing on Friday? Any TV parties planned?

Also, and given, as you remember that you kicked us out of America a few years ago, why are you so interested in this little marriage in the Windsor family!!! :confused: :p :rolleyes:
