Faldage! I can't believe YOU came out to be a Bywater!
Stole my paulb's glory, literally from right under him!

Using my full name: Myrtle Took of Great Smials

Not being fond of the name Myrtle, I tried my short one:
Dimple Took of Great Smials. MUCH better!

Lovely site!

What fun!
And being married I did both maiden and married name -- here's what I got.
Maiden name :
Orangeblossom Burrows of Tuckborough
Married name :
Orangeblossom Broadbelt of Buckland
So shall I be "of Tuckborough" or "of Buckland"?
??? Your opinions please ...
I tend towards Buckland myself

If I use my full name, it makes me Grigory Goodbody of Brockenborings. Using Bob, as I do mostly, it's Mongo Goodbody of Brockenborings. Using my AWAD screen name yields Mongo Loamsdown of Great Smials.

Interesting. My Hobbitt family consists of moi, Pearl Deepelva of Breckenborings; husband Belba Deepelva, etc.; and sons (?), Camellia and Ruby . Is there something they haven't told me?

Sparteye, I knew we were soul-sisters.
Maiden - Orangeblossom Chubb-Baggins
Married - Orangeblossom Sandy-Banks

A couple of interesting things here....First, I am obviously glad to lose the Chubb in my name. I'm very sensitive to these things. Secondly, I married a southerner who loves the beach, is that where the 'Sandy Banks' comes from??
