welll lately I have been emailed more and more about the sexual drug 'Valura' and *giggles* I am thinking of changing my name for this reason...
what do you guys reckon?
I chose my name before this Valura herb thingo was released and I think that its a bit sad that I may have to but I wanted to guage opinion before I went ahead and did it...
I would proberly just change my name to chicken.
TAJ "boat mummy." VALURA "yes sweetie you went on a boat, was daddy there with you?" TAJ "no, but monkey on boat" VALURA "well then sweetie, Daddy WAS there with you"
We know and love you as Valura. However, that won't change with any name change
Ummm, well actually, if you change it to Uber Fuehrer..... that might put me off.

Wait, you want to change your name because some idiotic product that doesn't work and will be off the market after six months because it doesn't work...will be on the market for 6 months?
Puhleeze!
Leave your name as it is!

Valura evokes a sense of lushness, softness, huggable-ness, warmth, and loveliness
No "woody" mental pictures at all. I think they stuffed up the name of the drug, and thus should change it, and I think I shall write to them to tell them so!
But if you were going to change it, then Chicken, definitely.

Stick with the name, it's nothing that anyone on here's bothered about
Though now that you've mentioned it.... 
No, stick with it!!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit a minute!
You're really put off by the idea that you are amazing enough to encourage erections in men?
That you are capable of giving helping them achieve great pleasure and joy?
Huh. Most women I know would love the thought of that.
I'd rather be associated with getting men up than an old, ill, crinkly soccer player.

I didn't even know there was such a drug! Seriously Valura, I wouldnt bother... as Pele said, I'd be happy to have that kind of affect just with a name!
(besides, if you changed it, I wouldn't have any idea who you were and would complain about newbies being made mods)

I had no idea of any drugs called Valura. I know I don't say hello much, but you'll always be the only Valura I'll think of

i don't think you should change it.
but if you do change it, whatever you do, don't change it to 'viagra'.
cos that would be like even worse and stuff.

You could change it to Sildenafil (insert little registered trademark circly thing) though, then only nerds like me would know what it is

I thought you were going to change from Kwistie to Valura by deed poll.
I know you and adore you as Valura
and Chicken and will adore you if you call yourself "she who is known to get men up and is a bizzare erb" Is it the Truth?
Is it Fair to all concerned?
Will it build Goodwill and Better Friendships?
Will it be Beneficial to all concerned?

i dont really know you, valura. But what i do know is that HoP loves you and will always love you despite your choice of changing your name. I for one, think that valura is a gorgeous name. I find it to be very angelic and snuggly... Keep your name
we all love it, just not as much as we love you. "I don't know what you are talking about"

Don't even think about it girl! The name is beautiful and it fit's you perfectly. As Doc said, the other will be long gone and forgotten soon.

People think I'm a girl with my name!
At the end of the day, its just that, a name! No matter what you choose, somewhere along the line, people are going to associate it with something that isn't what you associate it with.
hmm, that looks like gibberish now. What I'm trying to say is, names don't matter in the big scheme of things, you're still you (the person who we all love) underneath whatever name you choose for yourself.
My state of mind is not yours to define!
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

Valura sounds very exotic.
I say keep it.
They could have used the name for something alot less pleasant
. . . like toenail fungus.
At least you got the cool drug.

Pele, I associate your name with the volcano goddess not a wrinkled up old soccer player.

Do you really want to know what i think. I think you should change your name to Where the Moon once was!!!! That may be a little long so maybe something like Missing Moon But if you don't think either of those are relevant than i think probably just sticking with the one you've got!!
Seriously i would give some thoughts to my suggestions.
