Have You Ever Said Your Lit Name Out Loud?

[Dixon Carter Lee]

I'd never said, "Dixon" out loud until a couple of days ago (while speaking to a couple of Board members). I made up the name "Dixon" over a year ago, but the only way I'd ever expressed it before was with a keyboard, so when I recently had occasion to speak it out loud it sounded odd, and strange. I felt a tinge guilty, saying "Hi, this is Dixon", like I was lying to myself about who I was.

The feeling only lasted a second, and then it felt fine. But there was a definite out-of-body moment there, and all because I'd spoken a word I'd only ever printed before. (And that was just "Dixon". I've yet to say "Carter Lee".)

I know many of you converse with other Lit members from time to time, and you've probably used your "name" often -- but was there a first time when it felt odd?

That's "Dixon". Like "Nixon", but without the "Dick".

DCL - If you think saying "Dixon" aloud is funny, try saying "I'm Gaucho" to someone with a straight face.

I

It seems especialy wierd when I refer to it in the third person here. Just seems so friggin contrived or something.

 

[Purple Haze]

I talked on the phone with a board member recently, calling her by her real name seemed odd to me, kind of like seeing the Lone Ranger without his mask.

 

[KillerMuffin]

Odd. My name is Muffin. Well, it's not reallly Muffin, at least not on my birth certificate, but that's what everyone calls me. So no, I don't have a problem with the name thing. Unless I get called Killer. Most people on the board refer to me as Muffin, or Muff or something, and when they IM or email, its alway Yo Muffie, or something to that effect. Occassinally I'll get a Dear Killer, email and it takes me a moment to realize that the writer is referring to me and not to the Son of Sam.

What? You thought Muffin referred to my pussy? It doesn't. Her name is Joe. She's a lovely domestic medium hair orange and white cat. She thinks she is a dalmation with the ability to jump onto counters, though. Geez you guys, get your mind out of the gutter.

 

[Patryn]

I've only talked on the phone with one BB member so far, and I introduced myself as "Patryn" just for reference's sake, but I figure, hey, if I'm close enough ot the person to be talking on the phone, I'm close enough to them to tell them my first name, which I then did. He reciprocated. But yeah, it was a little weird to use my screen name IRL.

Hey MUFFIE now you have me wondering? Do you have a name for your ......you know, down there..

Or anyone else for that matter, Any pet name they use for there body parts?

 

[Whispersecret]

I wanna hear "Hung like Horsey's" response here!

I've said my screen name aloud to a couple of critique partners who know I write erotica for this site. It only felt strange, I think, because I was talking about secretly writing erotica with people face to face.

Anyone else curious as to who Dixon talked to?

 

[Weird Harold]

Intorducing myself as Weird Harold doesn't feel strange at all. It is after all a nickname I've had since 1969. If a am not used to it after 31 years, well...

Bruiser, dee and Ramlick. We're forming a barbershop quartet.

Lookout guys,KillerMuffins pussy has teeth.LMAO

 

[CreamyLady]

Well, I've got this name at Literotica, and another name on several pagan boards and ICQ, and a ritual name, and my real name . . . no, it's not strange.

I answer to all of them. Though now that I'm talking fairly regularly on the phone to a board member, we've dropped the handles and just use our real names.

 

[Cheri]

Nope, not at all. Heck there are people in my life now that call me by this name.

 

[Merelan]

Boy if we are to start saying it out loud I sure am glad I went with merelan instead of slutty ass bitch, or Whore Queen.
Whew.....

 

[Katerina Val-Kyrie]

I have used Katerina for a few years now in other sites as well as Literotica, so it does not seem strange to me really. But, once I get to know a person well, I feel strange when they still call me Katerina. I prefer a first name basis once I am comfortable with the person I am talking too. Mind you, it's nice to be mysterious for a little while

I have said my name out loud a few times, and hmmm, I like it.

Hugs KitKat

 

[coach]

All the kids call me coach when I see them so I'm pretty used to it. Sorry kinda boring!

 

[Savage Kitten]

A few of my R/L friends who know my online screen name call me Kitty or Kitten, I think it's cute. A sgt. at work calls me 'Savage' when he sees me. I know he is just teasin but it is still a lil embarassing haha

Once my sis and I went to a live taping in Atlanta of this i-net version of jerry springer called "Talkin' Trash". We made matching tank tops with our names painted across the front (Savage and Ruthless Kitten). That was a lot of fun... a couple of peeps asked for autographs hahaha

[Roll-One]

I don't think i have ever said this nic to anyone outside of here, i have had this nic for along time, the more i think about it...YEAH.. i would start cracking up, if i did say it..LOL

 

[Purple Haze]

I say "roll one" a lot actually.

 

[Merelan]

But are you talking dice, or bums?

 

[Purple Haze]

Bowling.

 

[Siren]

Hahahaa DCL..........

 

[Merelan]

I don't ever remember saying that when i was bowling, but then again, I try to stay away from bowling alleys as much as possible.

 

[Siren]

Oh I forgot to answer your question......

 

[Jade]

Fabulous thread idea b/c my particular name comes up a lot as there are many references ... (eg: the movie, the restaurant, the stone, etc. )

Anyhow, to answer the question ... Hell yes.. it feels almost (okay made up word here don't laugh) "nakeding" saying it... almost as if I am giving my secret little hobby away somehow?

Oh, and DCL you ought to get used to saying yours b/c if we speak on the phone I know you won't be using your real name! I understand you well enough to know THAT much at least!
