Should Fredwina change her name?

**Fredwina** · 11-13-2008, 12:47 PM

Been thinking about this (see what not riding your bike does to you

)
My "real -life" club tagged me with the nickname "the Shark". While I don't really like that one, I was thinking more along the lines of "la Tiburon", This is Spanish for "the Shark", although i've been informed that Sharks have male genders (i.e. it should "el Tiburon", but that doesn't exactly fit in with Team E

)
So, what do you have to say?

Fredwina needs to heal and be able to get back on her bike and post more pics! I like your name as it is

I like Fredwina, both the name and the person.

So there.

JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!

I like the name Fredwina.

Both Bleeker and I changed our name. If you think you need the mojo of a new stronger (sexier, more exotic, however you see it) name, I think you ought to change it.
People recognize you from your posts and your avatar. Don't change both at the same time!!

I think it's okay to be "La Tiburona," I don't actually speak Spanish but I've seen that kind of construction before.

But I like Fredwina...

No multiple personality disorder like Mimi and create a new name then log in on the old one.

I like Fredwina.

I don't know, but I made up a haiku for you.

If peaceful shark asks,
"Hey! You want a piece of me?"
it's our Fredwina.

"fred" is a germanic root that means "peace."

I don't like it when people change their names. I forget who they are (all except Mimi, who could forget that avatar?!?)

I did, too. And my avatar changes with the season, so do try to keep up!

I like Fredwina, too. It's got that certain jazz....

Can I change my vote to the Arkansas Spanish choice?

uhoh you changed BOTH? So WHO were you?

**jobob** · 11-13-2008, 04:15 PM

I like Fredwina (the name, & the person behind it).

But, if you want to change it, that's entirely up to you.

**salsabike** · 11-13-2008, 07:03 PM

"Fredwina" and long, impressive, unsupported/randonneur-type rides with great photos are indelibly linked in my head.

**Velobambina** · 11-14-2008, 03:48 AM

I changed mine, too. You can always revert to Fredwina if you decide you don't like the new one.
