i take it back, a new zealander named "randy" is not very believable.

― di smith (lucylurex), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 03:43 (twenty-three years ago)

I wanted to be "Beau Manly" but then I found out that one of the artists is actually called Beau. How dare he.

samson de salvatore and why the fuck is it a boys only show?

― simon (simon), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 05:22 (twenty-three years ago)

a group art show for male artists. there was one for the ladies earlier in the year.

― rainy (rainy), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 05:30 (twenty-three years ago)

oops sorry I thought you said "what"

― rainy (rainy), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 05:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Ok, in that case rainy why are you attempting to sneak in on the boys, if the ladies had their own show before?

― simon (simon), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 05:34 (twenty-three years ago)

I look too good in a moustache to let this opportunity slip by. Also because I am greedy.

― rainy (rainy), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 05:37 (twenty-three years ago)

"Greedy Jones" would be a good Nom de Watsit.

― gazza, Wednesday, 23 October 2002 05:59 (twenty-three years ago)

i'd go for a name that could be construed as either male or female 'cause that'll keep the karma gods at bay. something like 'sam' or 'kerry'. how about 'sam kerry'? ok, that makes you sound more triathlete than artist but who cares? i mean, pablo picasso's the best porn name i've ever heard.

― angelo (angelo), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 06:10 (twenty-three years ago)

maybe Jess could lend me his name.

― rainy (rainy), Wednesday, 23 October 2002 06:17 (twenty-three years ago)

How about an initial instead of a first name -- say, "S. Kerry"?

I was thinking that paint colour names would be a nice idea but only vaguely male sounding name I can think of is Paynes Gray. Plenty of female ones: Olive Green, Rose Madder, Scarlet Lake.

nine years pass...

Working on a female name, did some research and workshopping and am pretty committed to first name Dolores.

Surname options:

del Lomo
de la Rosa
(problems with these: Lana del Rey, Paz de la Huerta, possible confusion with actual person, possible perceived cultural insensitivity)

Morgana (a bit dramatic, but I always liked the character of Morgana from Ali Baba & 40 Thieves b/c iirc she boiled some fools in oil)

and my favorite:

Goldenrod (an allergen, a beautiful yellow color, grows plentifully around my birthday in my native homeland, is used medicinally, three syllables, vaguely smutty, ripe for projection)

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:12 (fourteen years ago)

Dolores means sorrows though

― After all, I grew up masturbating at my parents' house (Michael White), Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:28 (fourteen years ago)

I know! That's why I like it.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:30 (fourteen years ago)

Also my mom had a really good friend named Dolores but she died when I was 9 or so.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:31 (fourteen years ago)

Dolores Morgana sounds like morning sickness

― After all, I grew up masturbating at my parents' house (Michael White), Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:32 (fourteen years ago)

again, you are nailing the reasons i like these names

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:33 (fourteen years ago)

But Dolores Goldenrod -- that is the one to beat at the moment.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:34 (fourteen years ago)

^^ needs a middle initial for maximum nom-de-pluminess imho

― i think this is serious (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:36 (fourteen years ago)

Dolores M. Goldenrod

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:37 (fourteen years ago)

Dolores I. (Inéz) Goldenrod.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 24 January 2012 15:38 (fourteen years ago)
