...I think of myself as Fay more than I think of myself by my birthname.
Good, because I think that goes for most of us.
Mostly I think of Cash as Cash. Any of Plei's names work for me.
Jayne: 'Cause I don't know these folks. Don't much care to. Mal: They're whores. Jayne: I'm in.

Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I didn't know Fay wasn't your birthname!

I think of Cash as Cash, Plei as Plei, Cass as Cass, meara as both meara and her real name, and think of Hec as both David and Hec, and tend to interchange them depending on what is transpiring in the conversation.
I never go by my board name in real life.

That must make things awkward.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

It's my middle name. Or one of them - I have four names in total. So Fay is my name, but it's not the one I normally go by in everyday life. Um.
t sheepish

Yeah, in real life, he goes by The Eutectic, which is hard to say.

Oh, and Fay is most definitely and completely Fay.
That must make things awkward.
It's rare that I need to be that specific.

Cindy, apparently they took out my on-the-uptake piece today, too. I totally didn't even recognize that Xander quote. I hang my head in shame!

Okay, I had to go look up eutectic, and while I'm still kind of trying to wrap my brain around just exactly what that word means, I still think that's a wicked cool nickname.

Bifster.
Err.
It was ironic and stuff? Honest? And I never was called it IRL.
The other nym, the one I used for years online, was a Red Dwarf ref (Cloister the Stupid). I think I did respond to Cloister. I had a secondary nick for some private pretentious subboards, but again, never went by it IRL.
On the racing boards, before I left in the post-9/11 world (not a good place to be a liberal commie), I went by Delicate Vine (we all had horse names) or DV for short.
