Well, RG is sort of boring... of course you can all still call me that, but the initials should stand for something. I guess because my lovely inventive parents came up with the spectacularly original name "Jane" I've always wanted something a little splashy, different, meaningful...LOL! So anyway, I promise to keep and answer to RG, but want it to mean something significant to my life... k?

Well, the G could stand for Genesis, which is supposed to be about "beginnings" I believe. But really, your life is more of a rebirth, so Phoenix would be more fitting in that regard. Don't mind me, I'm just tossing around words right now. I like ReGal and AreGee.

Relaxed Girl (no more worries about resorts!) Reality Guru I think you should put a temporary disclaimer on your name like... aka Resortgirl or RG. That way it won't confuse some of us. (not saying me or anything)

resort girl (aka RG), i've been thinking about this name change thingie all day. why change? just because you won't have your resort doesn't mean you aren't a "resort girl". as i recall, last year you visited a resort in cancun or somewhere. "resort girl" can just mean you like to GO TO resorts! also by keeping the name "resort girl" it will always remind tvch people of the happy times that they had visiting your resort. also, if someone hasn't been on the board for awhile, by having a name change, you may be difficult to find.

I agree with Landi (but of course I would because she's my cyberdaughter). Resortgirl still fits you. Resort, for an important part of your past. Resort for your future, Belize, where you want to end up some day. RG sounds good, and fits you. Like Who, I was thinking today about things related to the phoenix. But I still like Resortgirl, ReGal, ReGuvenated, or any variant of RG that you ultimately decide upon. And I still like LadySunshine, because whether you think of yourself that way or not, I always do. And P.S. - You're anything but plain Jane. You're very special.

No knocking Janes of Janies...I'm one too! I don't know about your area, but there don't seem to be very many of us around these days! On another board I go by Lady Jane...LJ for short. Has a nice ring to it (and goes along w/ my favorite book series "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon).

You know, I was thinking like Landi too, but she said it perfectly. No need to change your name at all as far as I'm concerned!

Since we don't think RG should change her name, can we change mine? I picked it because it was the same one I used on other forums but have never really liked it at all. I know I don't post as much as some of you do, but I read most of the posts. You could ask me anything. I'm not shy or modest just boring! Anyway, I don't think resortgirl should change her name because I have always liked it. It's fun, not boring!

Jane, I have an aunt Jane. She owns a bar named "Plain Jane's". She, like you, is anything but plain. I grew up looking up to Jane and you do remind me of her in many ways. Just the other day I was thinking about your name and wondering if you would change it. I will always think of you at RG, whether you change it or not. Denecee, I have seen you around, but don't know much about you. It sounds like you are like me--read the board religiously, but rarely post. What are some of your interests, your career, your pets' names? I think that is how most of us have chosen our names. Throw out some ideas and folks will discuss and see what we can come up with.

Bookworm, you are so right about reading the posts religiously, but rarely post. I use to love to dance, still do but I look silly dancing by myself(hubs doesn't like to fast dance). Hmm...I am thinking I'm kind of boring right about now, which is silly because I have 10 people living in my home(including myself), so you would think how can you be boring. I guess I'll just keep my moniker, but just so you know that I do have interest, I will list a few more. I love to exercise because it is my time to think and because it keeps me healthy. I love to read. I love people. Maybe this post should go in another thread, I don't want resortgirl thinking I stole her thread. She's too sweet to think such a thing. Resortgirl, I still don't think you should change your name but if you do please post your new name in my folder.

When I see your name "Resortgirl" or "RG" I don't even think of your resort usually, the name Resortgirl/RG gives me your personality on this board (and what a wonderful hostess you are at your resort from what I've read here) ... Resortgirl is you, not a resort girl. Do you know what I mean? I do think you should change it if you want, but I think long time board readers and/or those that read the board often and/or those involved a lot with the board (even if it's mostly just lurking) will still equate your new name with RG

How cool, Bookworm! When I retire from teaching, I'd love to own / work at a coffee/book shop. One that serves "cordials" / liquor would be even better! LOL ~RG~ Any final decisions? I think of your name as cheerful and relaxing. Hope you decide to stick w/ it...but if a you feel a change is needed ~ Go for it!
