I have only vague theories as to the missing horcux. As for RAB...

Select to view spoiler:


I think it is Regulous Black


Maybe we should start a HP thread. Hold on, I'll be right back.
Ok, come here, we'll talk! http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=8&t=22821

I thought I wanted to be Margurite when I was little - I named a shade of pink 'Marguite pink' and then decided it was too posh... so I always pretended to be Marina when we played games. One day my Mum stopped and said "We almost named you Marina... it means the same as yur name, Meredith, but Marina is Greek and Meredith is Welsh" I was so surprised! (Means: child of the ocean)

Then I discovered the Little House books - funny thing is that it was about the time I realised I was an advanced reader - had read and re-read the whole series by Laura Ingalls Wilder by the time I turned 7 and several of the other kids in my class were just starting books over 15 pages long! Then, of course I wanted to be called Laura & it's still a favourite name to this day!

Still I think my parents had really good taste and whenever I meet someone else called Meredith we almost always say how much we like it!

I am just on a real understanding Mary Magdalene phase at the moment - the underrated disciple! Hence my posting name (also I thought it sounded like a name from the 'verse,... is this post the first time I've used my 'real' name on this forum??)

Lovin' you all, but must go to bed now! Mwaaah - Magdalena x x x

Morning all!

I've never been a big fan of my name, but whatchya gonna do? :shrugs: I can't imagine being called anything else. But as a child, I did always want to be called Samantha and go by Sam. I had this fascination with having a girl's name and a boy's nickname. I tried to get my name to work for that, but I'm not to fond of Ray which is really the only boy's name you can make from Traci.

The reading early thing is so great - I read 'I, Claudius' at the age of 7 or so, and I never realised that I wasn't 'supposed' to. Dad had a lot of fun explaining incest and disembowelling. I read anything, anywhere. The only reason I carry a bag is that it is big enough to carry a book and my little notebook of evil.

Perfect evening - warm bubble bath, cold glass of white wine, good book (write faster, Rowling, and d**m your kids!)

My real name means 'consecrated to god', but on balance, I think the god in question might be one of the strange and squid-like ones from the Elder Times. I never answer to my full name anyhow.

I guess my name wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the meaning (it's one with a gap between your teeth). I do like my middle name though. It's A'liah (means exalted).

My first name is David... a good, solid name... it's ok by me, but lately I’ve noticed that parents name their kids the weirdest things... some simply sound made up and others seem to have some strange relevance to the parent, but the poor kid is the one to suffer...

I miss good, honest names like Joe... don't see many Joes anymore...

Morning all imponderers!

As for a name... well I've never really had a desire change my name or have any other name. I used to go by Arthur all the time, then in high school everyone called me Art and it kind of stuck. As for my last name, however, when I was a kid I had this Asian last name and I wanted a "normal" last name. But as I've grown, I've become more appreciative of my heritage and found out that my last name has meaning.

PR, Texas isn't so bad. You should come visit some time!

My best friend was just in Texas for a bit. She didn't have a very good time. Are you sure it's not that bad?
Nah, I kid you, but I might just head down if I ever have money combined with time off. Both would involve a new job, so send good job vibes my way!
Of course, ifyou have money combined with time off....
