Wait! The new girl has a topic! (aka I need help.)

[MsSpring]

Okay, I have a topic! I joined a Roller Derby League, and I need to come up with my moniker! If you don't know, these girls have names like "Ivanna Krushya", "Pam Demonium", etc.

I have some time to come up with one, but you all seem like a group of clever people. Help me out.

The current top 3 are: Mia Oww, Juicy Lawless, and Broadside Betty.

(Tits Ahoy was suggested, I attempted to discard it...it is now my work name. Nothing like the medical director saying, "G'night, Tits Ahoy!" Makes me feel like a real professional, taken seriously by my superiors. heh.)

[BlairH]

mmm Juicy Lawless sounds good!

[Noah Johnson]

I assume Miss Demeanor is already taken?

[Davideaux]

Mia Oww is clever. Choose it.

[StoneGold]

Helga the Whoreable?

[MsSpring]

I assume Miss Demeanor is already taken?

Probably. I'm getting a list of claimed names later this week. I was holding out for something close, like Mysti Meaner, but I'm pretty sure that's too close. There're about 40 leagues in the country, so most of the ones that come to mind off the bat are probably gone.

My mother's contribution was Spring Loaded...but I'm trying to avoid use of my real name. Everything else I use includes it, it would be fun to have one true alter-ego.

Anyways, I need something hot/badass if I'm gonna be a Rollergirl! If you can't tell, I'm more excited than all get out for practices to start. :)

[BlairH]

Helga the Whoreable?
Ah you and your famous sense of tact ;)


Love it!

[MsSpring]

Ah you and your famous sense of tact ;)


Love it!


Actually, I love it, too! :) Just not sure if I love it more than Juicy Lawless. heh. And really, if I was going that way, I might as well have stuck with Tits Ahoy.

[i_mmmchocolate]

Helga the Whoreable?

hilarious.


If I joined a Roller Derby team (not likely) I'd choose 'Joe Momma'.

[StoneGold]

You could get the geeks really on your side, stick Darth in front of a feminine name. Darth Betty, Darth Veronica, etc.

[Noah Johnson]

Miss O'Trouble.

Lena N. Meena.

Amanda Trample.

Miss Kitty.

Belle On Wheels.

Eileen Onya.

"Ave" Maria.

Bonnie Breaker.

[StoneGold]

Benita Dover

[Ed Cunard]

Tina Shuss.
Diana Thurday.
Sue D'Etat.
Taryn Feather.
Belle Tolls.

[StoneGold]

There might be some copyright issues on this one, but Malice Vundabar.

[Dan Apodaca]

I'd like to nominate Vaginacide.

[StoneGold]

Given the crowd at roller derbies, you could probably get some cheers with Ellen Degenerate.

[Ed Cunard]

That's a good one.

[Ed Cunard]

Are roller derby types drinkers? Killian's Anderson, maybe?

[MsSpring]

Given the crowd at roller derbies, you could probably get some cheers with Ellen Degenerate.

Got one. I'm pretty sure that one of the Mad-Rollin Dolls has that as her moniker.


BTW, I'm *lovin* these suggestions! Belle Tolls is one of my faves...I'm definitely going to have to check that against the list later.

[howyadoin]

Roxy Roller?

[StoneGold]

Then I'll assume something like Brittney Speared is probably taken as well.


Ambercrombie and Bitch might be too much of a mouthful.


Killer Bea Arthur?

[howyadoin]

Ambercrombie and Bitch might be too much of a mouthful.That might be better for a duo.

Crabsareonme and Bitch.

[Sanagi]

You could steal "Irma Geddon" from Top 10.

[StoneGold]

That might be better for a duo.

Crabsareonme and Bitch.
That's good. I was trying to think of a way to sort of split it up, Amber Crombie Bitch or something, but again, too much of a mouthful. Although I guess inevitably it would just end up being shortened to Amber Bitch.

[twilight]

Violentia Tuff.

[Dan Apodaca]

Should I have spelled it Vagenocide? Or Vaginocide?

[MsSpring]

Then I'll assume something like Brittney Speared is probably taken as well.


Ambercrombie and Bitch might be too much of a mouthful.


Killer Bea Arthur?

Oh my gosh, I bet it is taken. Brittney Speared is funny. I like it.

I really like Abercrombie and Bitch, but agree that it's better for a duo. I don't have any good friends in the league...yet. Maybe when I do. As for being a mouthful, one of my other favorite suggestions given elsewhere was Randi Acts of Violence...so long names wouldn't be a big deal if they were good ones.

I think there is a Killer Bea Arthur...

[Royal]

hhhmmmm.

Jess Splitter
Mag Lived
Barb Dwyer
Laruel Thorn
Kia Locke
Judy Kitame
Lei Olay
Vallon Anjel
Tommi Gunn
Ella Bowe
Tai McNee

All I got so far.

[Shellhead]

Miss Demeanor

[StoneGold]

I think there is a Killer Bea Arthur...
You're shitting me. Killer Bea Arthur? Next you'll tell me there's a Meri-death Baxter Burnward.

[Two-Face]

Hurricane Kitrina or Kitrina Cane

[thik_3rd]

is that like that movie roller ball?
i didn't even know that sport really existed.

[StoneGold]

Hurricane Kitrina or Kitrina Cane
That's a great short term name, but it doesn't really have legs.

[howyadoin]

is that like that movie roller ball?
i didn't even know that sport really existed.It used to be on TV in the 70s. Skinny Minnie Miller was dangerous.

[thik_3rd]

was it really all futuristic? it's hard to imagine something from the 70's being futuristic.

[howyadoin]

was it really all futuristic? it's hard to imagine something from the 70's being futuristic.Nope. It was more like wrestling, I guess.

[thik_3rd]

Nope. It was more like wrestling, I guess.
wrestling on rollerblades? or i guess in the 70's just rollerskates? how was the ball involved? i'm trying to conceptualize this but can't. it would help if i saw the movie instead of just hearing about it.

[StoneGold]

That's Rollerball, not Rollerderby. Two different things. And the derby tends to be on traditional skates. Quite frankly, I've never understood the rules. They go around in a circle and occasionally beat the crap out of someone.

[Royal]

Nope. It was more like wrestling, I guess.

You're thinking of Rollergames. Roller Derby has mostly action.

[howyadoin]

You're thinking of Rollergames. Roller Derby has mostly action.Yeah, but it was violent and theatrical.

[Royal]

It's sort like Tag mixed with Red Rover. One person out of the team has to make a revolution around the ring. The person is signified by a prominate colored helmet. It's up to the rest of the team to clear a path for the runner while the opposing team blocks as much as possible. The runner must make one rev around the ring to make it count. The helmet is then passed to another team member. a game consists of four quarters. Two for each team. I think the quarter ends either when time runs out or all the members of your team has tried to go a rev. The team with the most revolutions win the game.

[Spike-X]

Saxon Violence

[Paradox]

And, traditionally, like wrestling, it's "pre-determined". Don't know about if MsSpring's league is, though.

[phoenixrising]

Wait... there's roller derby here in Milwaukee?

Wheeere?

[onizuka]

all the names i came up with suck. and they sound more porn than roller derby.

some of the ones suggested kick ass

[twilight]

Satantanya.

[Venoman]

since i have no idea what this game is and ive never heard of it my suggestion/s will be crap but ahwell

Gena Tolls
Beatrice McHardy
Dia Ria
Joana Man
Melisa Twat

[Sanagi]

Satantanya.
Beelzebarbara

[Paradox]

twilight makes me notice an odd similarity:

Satantanya.

[MsSpring]

You're shitting me. Killer Bea Arthur? Next you'll tell me there's a Meri-death Baxter Burnward.

Haha, nope, pretty sure that one is an original. :) She might just be "Killer Bea"..but even though Killer Bea Arthur is funnier...it's still too close. I like it, though.

[MsSpring]

is that like that movie roller ball?
i didn't even know that sport really existed.

Not precisely. RollerDerby was big in the 40's and 50's and in the 70's. Now, it's had a revival as an all girl sport. There are about 40 leagues in the country right now.

Think wrestling on skates. :) With chicks in fishnets. It's fun to watch, and agressive as hell.

It's not like the RollerJam stuff that was big for a while on TV. It's *not* the actors on skates playing a scripted game.

Game play:
There are 3 20-minute periods. There are 5 girls to a team. The pivots (striped helmet) are up in front. The Blockers (3 to a team) form a pack behind them. Then, the Jammers (star on helmet) are in the back. The whistle blows, and the Jam starts. The Jammers have to pass through the pack once, and then points can be scored when the Jammer passes a person on the opposite team. They can also, if they wish, pass the star to the Pivot (*only*), who then becomes the Jammer. Each Jam lasts two minutes, or until the lead Jammer decides to call off the Jam.

I hope that's clear. :) It makes more sense when you watch it, I think. I've seen video footage a bunch, but we're going en masse to see our first bout this Sunday in Chicago. Woo!

[MsSpring]

Wait... there's roller derby here in Milwaukee?

Wheeere?


Brand new league, just started. Practices don't even start up until Dec...and bouts aren't planned until early summer. :) If you're on MySpace...look for the Brewcity Bruisers.

[Dom]

You want to intimidate?

Ms. Bukkake.

I know I'd run from that.

[Dreadstar]

I'd go with something like:

"Wheels" Mahoney.

[Fabian]

Five Fist Fanny May

Well hush my mouth. All this time I thought it was something else. Last time I ask my aunts about something.

[Dreadstar]

I always thought that the jammer started at the front and had to go all the way around and "lap" the other team's players to score. And I'm not talking about the more rect "Jam" stuff either. I was watching that stuff in the 60's... You know, Bay City Bombers, Charlie O, Big John Parker, Joanie something, Little Ralphie, Run-Run...

[Spackling Compound]

The Indestructible Warrior or "iwarrior" for short....

[YoursTruly]

Red Dawn
Gena Side
Holly Hardass
Harley Quinn (probably taken but I love it ;) )
Dirty Diana
Samantha Smash
Kelly Kicksomeass
Tricky Trixy
Donna Dominator
Sally Sideswipe

I got a ton of em. lol

[Converge]

Neil Diamond

[StoneGold]

You can name yourself Biggina Smalls, and then someone on another team could name themselves Tupacette, and BAM!!! Built in rivalry.

[Shellhead]

My mother's contribution was Spring Loaded...but I'm trying to avoid use of my real name. Everything else I use includes it, it would be fun to have one true alter-ego.


I know that you said you're trying to avoid using your real name, but what about Spring Roll?

[Doug Strange]

Deathbitch 5000.

I'm not sure how it used to go, but the jammers start at the back, pivots in the front. :)

[MsSpring]

Oh, cute! Yeah, I really like all the ones that have my name, but I know I won't choose them. :)


Seriously, all of these suggestions are overall so friggin funny and badass that now I *really* am going to have a hard time picking!

[K'Nort]

Sell ideas to your teammates!

i'm so disappointed. i thought you fought to the death and threw spiked metal balls at each other.

[Spike-X]

Kelly Kicksomeass


I like this one!

[StoneGold]

Courtney Cox Blox?

[HomerJay]

Neil Diamond
Brilliant in it's simplicity.

[Venoman]

callum dodsworth... ha ha, what a stupid name

[Noah Johnson]

Donna Matrix.

Donna Matrix.
OK, that one took me a sec, but it's too good not to be taken, right?

[MsSpring]

Donna Matrix.


Nice. This makes it into my top 10 faves. :)

No list yet. Probably early next week now. All the energy is on organizing us to the bout this weekend.

I'll be sure to let everyone know. :)

[spoon_jenkins]

I'm amazing to see how many names some folks can come up with!

My suggestions:

Ann R. Key
Cammy Kaze
Ina Gaddadavida

[Venoman]

how about.... Sue Iside? how can that not be in the top list?
