August Names???

Has anyone thought of a name for us August girlies? (and maybe guysies!) I am hoping to have my surgery this summer, so I'd love to start thinking of something cute if you haven't already!

Doesnt matter to me yall can choose what name yall want but as for me I have had this signature for about 5 mths now on here and Im not changing so I will keep it and yall can do whatever. No this is not meant to cause a arguement its just my opinion when alot of time has been put into something its not as easy to just whip up stuff u know and im quite happy with the two I have, the one in my siggie and another I havent shown yet.

So do as yalls wish I wont vote cause my vote is not going to change. Sorry!

P.s. thank you to the ones that said they like my signature.

That's not very nice, if you're going to post here and be a part of this group, the you should be a part of this group and go with the name that we all collectively vote on. Don't separate yourself by having a different name from the rest of us. Join us and have the same name as us. Since you are so good at designing, maybe you should create the banner on the name that's the winner.

MoonandStarzz,

It's hard to tell from the post, but you almost sound a little upset at the fact that there will be a vote. I'm sure everyone thinks your banner is delightful, which it is, but it's got YOUR name on it. Are you implying that we should all have a banner like yours? Why can't a name be picked for the group and STILL have the name banner? And then you say that you haven't shown the other "siggy" yet. Are you afraid that someone will steal your idea? Why don't you share with the group? My opinion is that you don't want to be part of the group and you want to be your own entity and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. But many people. from what I can tell of the site, like the idea of a fun name. My suggestion is to the majority....pick a name you like. If moonandstarzz feels like sharing, so be it.

edel,

when you figure out how to do the ticker, let me know. both my boyfriend and i spent a long time trying to figure it out. i've done it before, so i don't know what's wrong. Boohoo!

The Augustos-

“with gusto” means “with spirited enjoyment”

The Ardent Augusts-

This sounds a little uppity, but check out some of the definitions of ardent! This is what happens when you start poking around in a Thesaurus for things that mean win, achieve, triumph, etc.

  • Having, expressive of, or characterized by intense feeling; passionate; fervent: an ardent vow; ardent love. (Or, how about an ardent bander?)
  • Intensely devoted, eager, or enthusiastic: an ardent theatergoer; an ardent student. (oh, I’ll be devoted alright and I’m darned sure already eager and enthusiastic!)
  • Burning, fiery, or hot: the ardent core of a star. (oh, wait, that’s an August Hottie! :thumbup:)

I used to work for ARDENT. HeeHee!

I like August All-Stars.

Remember men will also be banded in August. Please keep that in mind when creating banners, etc.
