Oh sorry, not word association.

What's so outdated about Brianna anyway?
It's a given name. People age with it.
Not you of course, thy eternal summer shall not fade.

Okay, how about Beatrice?
She's one of Shakespeare's feistiest heroines, and it's close to Brianna (kinda)
And I last saw her played by a redhead.

thanks for all the suggestions.

I'm going with Bee.

short, fast, to the point yet also round and fuzzy and poorly designed.

me to a Tee.

Wouldn't Bree be better?
Closer to the original, what many people call you already and metioned by Tolkien

Bree = way too cheesy. Belongs on a baguette with grapes.

Though I pronounce the name Bree-anna, I shorten it to Bry (Bri).

Bri = Bree to me.
Bry was short for Brian, until he was Pamela.

Ah come on, better than Bee surely?
Bea Arthur?

Awww. I like Bee.


Then again, I like bees.

And if Bri starts posting as Bee, then I can start picturing her as a cartoon bee. And that can only be a good thing.

I am a Burroughs fan, and therefore went for the Benway choice.

Bree's cool though. Feels carefree, a little bit wild and all that.

I like the DENIED. Is that a work perk?

I like ZigBee, which is the zick-zack dance of the bee.

FSM - this reminds me so much of Wonky Donkey (SM:TV with Cat Dealy every Saturday morning).


A work colleague and I would text eachother every week. I was superstar champion. But she sang the Saturday morning theme tunes far better than I did.

Ant & Dec are now national treasures, but back in those days they were allowed to be mean to children. And they deserved it for not knowing WHAT RHYMED!

no, just a google image search

I don't decline loans. Well, sometimes I do, but only if people are truly loan-proof. Then I have to send them an adverse action letter and a whole other bunch of bullshit... It's easier to just submit the app to a bank that doesn't care about book to look ratios and let them send the letter.

But I don't have a cool red stamp like that, if that's what you meant. I should get one. If just to fuck with the salesmen when they give me incomplete paperwork. Think I could get that past the Accts Receivable clerk? she's new.... i may just try....
