Saying that though...it's a heck of a lot better than what my married name should be , if I'd decided to lumber myself with hubbies surname....which is Tracey!!

Tracey Tracey huh....so good they named it twice!!!!!
Much better than my surname which I will tell you if we meet up in Perth

Here we come tooooooooooooooo

Mine is because we are a family and I always try to post pleasantly. These days.

Well, I do try.

And old Don Pleasence was everybody's favourite once upon a time. Here I am again:

Our last name is Ovens so it sort of fits.

Sorry if this has already been done but a lot of new names are about so may be interesting

That is a real let down, we really though you had a great name for someone who hates cooking.

Steandleigh:

Hub is Steve,

I am Leigh.

We are together - hence the 'and'.

Genius!!!!!!

( This is also the first forum I have ever used, so didn't have a clue about nicknames. )

Nobby is a common nickname for people who have a last name of Clark.

I wanted to be just a simple plain old Nobby, but the forum wouldn't let me (guess that someone else snuck in there before me)

I am currently living in Essex, so my second option was "EssexNobby"
