My Fantasy Name Is…

What if, just for kicks, you could change your name? What would you call yourself?

At our Talk TueNight event on April 28, we had a fantastic roundtable hosted by The Mash-Up Americans, and one of our favorite parts was when they asked folks on the panel — and then in the audience — what their fantasy name was. Some wished for a simpler, more easily pronounceable name while others longed for something more exotic. What's yours — and why?

It's super easy to record a video right from your phone or screen and hit submit, so join us in the fun. You'll have 22 seconds to tell your story and you can redo as many times as you want to get it right. And don't be disappointed if it takes a few minutes for your video to show up; we're doing some light monitoring behind the scenes. //assets.ziggeo.com/js/ziggeo-jquery-json2-betajs-player.min.js ZiggeoApi.token = "06076018f24d5e737e0be0319ad3c264"; .ziggeo-video-container { border-color: #F0E5E9; background-color: #F0E5E9; border-style: solid; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; display: inline-block; margin: 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; } .ziggeo-video-container p { color: #333; margin: 0; background-color: #fff; padding: 20px 20px 24px; font: 300 16px/18px 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; text-transform: capitalize; }
