    I'm thinking about ditching "Witt" for "Wolf". That's my maiden name after all. What do you think?

    • I think I'm wondering why you have a maiden name.Nairn
    • I was wondering that too. For some reason I like that you called it that.Jaline
    • Because I think I could play a lute, if one was given to me.Witt
    • Do you mean your mother's original last name? I do like the name "Wolf". sputnik's last name is that.Jaline
    • Ok. To be honest "wolf" was the last name of my putative grand-father.Witt
    • my family names are simple: father-side = goth-son (wisigoth); mother-side = blacksmith.Witt
    • wolf's my maiden name, because it describes my social character. Silent, faithful, playful but serious.Witt
    • btw, i was playing with the "maiden name" concept. please accept that I joke with words often.Witt
    • Gosh - where's your sense of humour?Witt
    • I guess that being a foreigner to english makes you wonder about what I say sometimes?Witt
    • about "maiden name"... it was a poor pun. I was thinking about Yeats and the Inviolate Rose.Witt
    • I miss Corvo, personally.
      Also, I don't understand #6.
      Though I do like 'wolfwit' - like halfwit, only menacingly so.      Nairn
    • you don't understand note #6?Witt
    • Yes.

      Which is to say 'no'.      Nairn
    • Well then I don't understand why you don't. Those are my family names. Unless it seems posh to you?Witt
    • You mean to say your surnames are actually 'wisigoth' and 'blacksmith'?
      Former's particularly cool!      Nairn
    • They are. I don't understand what the fuss is about.Witt
    • both were underpaid workers at the time, like I am now.Witt
    • Well, judging by my last name, at least one of my forebears was a bit of an dick...Nairn
    • I do believe you're trying to read too much, my friend. It's just names.Witt
    • Unless you're the last Weir of Hermiston, of course :PWitt
    • hiJaline
    • you called?Jaline
    • Now it's my turn to fail at teh hyoomorz.Nairn
    • hi!Witt
    • also, Nairn, I never said name was "wisigoth", I said Goth-son. I can mail you my ID card if you wish.Witt
    • Por todas as árvores do Minho! Is this where we end?Witt
    • NO!Witt
    • hello, Jaline, how is it going?Witt
    • "maiden name" was a joke.Witt
    • yeah, don't worry about it :PJaline
    • Nairn is still not convinced, though. I can tell he harbours something.Witt
