I'm not owning anyone's name anymore *shakes head*
It's okay, the question was basically for first names only because I didn't think people wanted to reveal their last names. And Alice is just fine.

hey now that I thought about it...that name has started to come out of the woodwork, media-wise. And they have the Alice In Wonderland movie coming out soon with Johnny Depp. Good times!

I guess my name is okay - Don't know what I would pick if I had the choice!!

There is this weird thing where people always seem to want to call me Becky...... This has happened on many occasions, and my real name does not sound like Becky, so who knows - maybe my name was supposed to be Becky!!

I'd choose a more generic last name that I didn't have to spell out every time, like Martin or Miller or Jones....etc.
