ItHadToComeToThis Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Obligatory quarterly... Can we please have some more last names, less joke names, more often, outside of themed ones for holidays, wider selection aka more to choose from?. When they announced they were bringing back surnames I was like "Yeah wonder what they will have". Now I am like "Oh, independence day is coming up. Lemme guess Freedom and Liberty are to be announced.....woo.....". Just open the back catalogue already and let people choose past surnames. No one cares. You will make more money. Literally have a page dedicated to searching out your perfect name from all the ones available. Yes you may have the occasional die hard like "Yerrrr but thats murrrrr surname" but screw those people they probably eat the fungus from between their toes. Please for the love of god....give us some decent surnames and open up that back catalogue. Such a half assed attempt at bringing surnames back. Got like one linden in a back office somewhere going "Ohhhhhh thats cute lets use UwU".....purlease. Find popular words or phrases that haven't been used before would be a good start. Vampire, Vampyre, Vampiric, Vlad, Impaler, Lycan, Necromancer Shinobi, Ninja, Viking, Soul, Soulless, Bard, Knight, Caster, Healer, Odin, Thor, Zeus, Hades, Racer, Optimist, Avenger, Fireman, Officer, Medic, Goth, Punk, Rocker, Emo, Metalhead, Dubstepper, Belieber, Victorian, Edwardian, West, Wildwest, Miner, Cowboy, Cowgirl, Rebel, Outlaw.....Jesus the list goes on. Do something... Okay obligatory quarterly rant over. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulsian Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 special last names are cute but if I have a virtual wedding would like last name that is custom. name change i think first name tweak would be neat. current last names is like belonging to cult imo.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bree Giffen Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 How about this idea. A special code that allows you to change your last name to anything is hidden in a prim somewhere in the mainland. It could be anywhere. Clues are hidden all around but only one lucky avatar will win. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing stopping you from using a simple script to boot people from your special magic place if their last name isn't (for example) Resident. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiritSparrow Skydancer Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) I still think Handmaiden is an excellent last name, and one that was rejected at the start of the official names selection meetings. We all might have to find refuge in Canada soon anyway..

Canada is/has been just as bad in their treatment of the First Nations as the US continues to be. It really sucks that a certain group of people want to make my life an even worse living hell for the last years of my life than what they already have made it and then for "supporters" to just abandon those in need. Not a very pleasant thought is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mishlait Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 As a Mexican who is addicted to Coca Cola, now I regret not having picked 'Mexicola' years ago when I had the chance. And man, Mamacita can mean a lot of things in Mex Spanish depending on tone and situation. Mamacita: (Endearing way). That's how you call your mother in the most loving way, just like with most diminutive forms. Mamacita: (playful way). How you call a woman when you think she's hot. Mamacita (Stalkerish, NOT GOOD): Most men who catcall women use this term. It's just disgusting as hell. You'd want to kick the ass of anyone who called that to your mom, sister, daughter or wife on the street. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
