Re: Changing my name....
Well congrats Tyr and forgive me for not putting the ' over the y.
BTW, you forgot one of Hoffmans best films.............Little Big Man. ;) |
Re: Changing my name....
Congrats, I am sure many people want to do this but very few have the guts and persistence to follow through. Life is too short to not like something that you hear several times every day. :tu

Re: Changing my name....
Congrats on the choice. As others have said it takes a lot of stones to do it. My wife and I spent considerable time picking our childrens names, but in the end it is the person who has to go through life with the name and personality and events of your life obviously effect if your name works.
I wanted and fought like hell to name my son Broody. My wife thought it invoked images of a drunken screaming southern frat boy. In the end I lost the fight and settled on Micah my second choice. That said it was what I wanted not my son so I dont know if in the future he wont like his name. I am thinking people will be calling you Tire though. As a whole most people dont seem to read peoples names very carefully. |
Re: Changing my name....
Mike, I've had to correct a few people at work already. The majority seem to get it right upon first glance but a few go the "tire" route. Its fine w/ me, like I said people can still call me Dustin and I'll be fine w/ that too.
Adam, red X instead of Pic but I can use my imagination on Techno viking LOL. You know, I never really thought of changing my name as something you'd have to have the stones to do. I'm not sure how much courage it takes but it always seemed like a natural inevitability to me so maybe that's where its coming from. Even when I was younger my parents knew that I didn't care much for my name, hence me always going by nicknames. Thanks for being supportive everyone. :tu |

Re: Changing my name....
If I was gonna change my name, I'd make it Harv Murray. I love that name.
Congratulations, my brother!!! :tu |
Re: Changing my name....
At least you aren't changing your name to Richard Wad, Tyr. :)
I was gonna suggest "Queequeg". :r |
Re: Changing my name....
Well any name has to be better than what most of your 'customers' call you on a daily basis. :r

Re: Changing my name....
Congrats Brother. I suppose I am one of the few that have already gone thru the process. I changed my name when I was 23 after using my nickname as common practice since I was 11 or 12.
It's a long and daunting process. I did it all myself, you can hire a lawyer for like $500 to do the legal legwork but it's really not that bad. A few court appearances, a few notices in the local paper and a few forms to fill out. The worst is when it's all done and you need to apply for a new BC, SS card and change all your credit card info, etc. Believe it or not, the one that gave me the most trouble was my energy company! Do yourself a favor and when it's all said and done, before you leave the court with the approval, get about ten motorized copies of the last form signed by the judge...you'll need it for EVERYTHING! You need a hand with anything, just let me know. |
Re: Changing my name....
Hey Duddy,
I still don't know how to pronounce your name. That was tough to admit cause I'm an egomaniac. Is it like e'Tier? I honestly have no idea what "pronounced like /ˈtɪər/" means. I didn't have much book learnin, and what I did get got toasted. You should record it and link it up so I can get it. Whenever I think of you, I always think of "Duddy" cause that's what we call my nephew. He's a great big dumb kid, and he's always smiling. Except he's not dumb at all, he's got a +130 IQ. He just comes off that way. He's fun to be around, and that's how I always imagined you. shilala out |
