The Soap Opera Name Game

[daBaroness]

The thread about names reminded me of a fun ice-breaker for meetings. To come up with your soap opera name - use the name of the first pet you had and the first street you grew up on as a kid. Then based on the name - come up with a brief description of your character.

I'm Suzy Puritan.

I think Suzy must be the seemingly repressed and demure town librarian by day and a whip-toting, sexually-confident dominatrix by night.

So who are you?

[Gwen]

We always did this as your stripper name. But I am game! My soap Opera name would be Suki Benden. I would imagine Suki as the illegimate daughter of the lead male character. She would know about the relationship before him and would blackmail him/try to destroy him for leaving her and her mom. Her mom would be a good woman who tried hard to bring her up right as a single mom but Suki still turns to stripping to make ends meet. Ok, ok, you said a short summary. I got into more of the plot. Anyway... next?

Gwen

[Nimue]

Amanda Greenleaf here. I'm eighteen and the daughter of a wealthy, blue-blood multi-millionaire and I have a long history of being kicked out of fancy prep schools. Daddy wants me to go to an Ivy League school, I want to just be a rampant trollop.

[SilverMirth]

Petunia Plum Here. (yes my first pet was indeed a pig which I found out years later that my dad bbq'd which may be why I am not so fond of pork)

I imagine that Petunia is the girl next door that will end up being drugged, kindnapped and killed off several times in the course of finding her true love who just happens to be the son of the man who ruined her family.

[*Gremco]

I am Smoky Marilyn. I am mysterious and elusive. I know everybody's dirty little secret. Wait, I AM their dirty little secret.

[Peaches O Malley]

I'm Mitzi Aster. I am the towns librarian trying to hide my secret past as a stripper and erotic cake decorator. I am finding this extremely difficult as I am being blackmailed by the local sheriff who has found several frosting bags stuffed in a book cart.

[Phoenix McHeit]

I'm Velvet Marion Terrace. I'm the town ball-buster. Everyone wants me but everyone is afraid of me. But really, I'm hiding behind this facade... all I want is to be loved and protected.

This is FUN! *rotfl**rotfl*

[AnnaFaerie]

Hello, my name is Breezie Lafayette. I'm your typical "good girl" of the 1950s....that takes care of everyone in her life...until one day she runs away with the nice man from the wrong side of town.

[Janelle of Warren]

I'm Barney Dean...........obviously I had a sex change. My rogue's name is Bridie 225..........he apparently is a secret agent who had a sex change. We make quite a couple. Talk about your dysfunctional family secrets. ;-)

[DangerousCurves]

"Mittens Charmund" here. I was born with pimentation issues (a la Michael Jackson) and I have a strange fascination with gloves like that girl on Mad TV. I irritate everyone around me on a regular basis. I twitch, I yodel everytime the phone rings, I salivate on command. I generally act like a half-wit who should be institutionalized. Underneath it all, I'm really a criminal mastermind who is plotting to take over the world. I have evil plans to make all the men in the world pay for their indiscretions and be Queen of the Earth! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Margaret]

Charlie Longyear here.

Hmm, Charlie is that sassy soap opera veteran who rolls over the ingenue's lines and makes them look like amatures. All with style, class and grace of course.

[daBaroness]

Mitzi Astor sounds like the spoiled and clueless town rich girl a la Paris Hilton. I LOVE it!

If you'd like - make up a character using your current information.

That would make me Tippi Gates-West. I think she's the bastard daughter of Bill Gates and one of his former bit-twiddling bimbos and receives a super-secret monthly allowance from "Daddy Dearest" to keep her quiet. She seemingly married well, but it's a loveless union because husband Chad West is actually the homosexual offspring of former Batman star Adam West and drag queen Rupaul.

Tippi's siblings are Chloe and Pete Gates. Chloe is a plus-sized hand model and Pete is the secret lover of Tippi's husband, Chad West.

[Katie O'Connell]

I think Suzy must be the seemingly repressed and demure town librarian by day and a whip-toting, sexually-confident dominatrix by night.


Innit funny how repressed and demre are so often the words that are used to describe Librarians? All true, of course....::whistle::

I would be Brandy Laguna.

I would be the brash talking, rough edged proprieter of my family owned town pub who is secretly but passionately in love with the handsome but aloof town Sherriff.

The pub barely survives, and people are always amazed that somehow Brandy makes it work-- but to what murky depths is she willing to sink to ensure the survival of the family business?

Will she sacrifice her dreams of being with her beloved lawman, and allow the local crime boss to manipulate her into being in cahoots with him? Will her ailing father, who depends on her and the business to sustain him and all his medical bills, be able to withstand the shock of discovering the path that his daughter is willing to take for his sake? Or will Brandy be able to cover her tracks and spare him the awful truth?

What bizzare secret is her father hiding that could ruin the family reputation, destroy the pub business, and expose the crime boss-- and tear the entire town apart?

Tune in tomorrow, when we learn who dressed that chicken in pantyhose...!

::readcar:

I think I'm gonna have to cut back on the coffee just a leeeetle bit.

[Andreadoria]

I have a choice.

Spottiny 77..The debonair double agent looking to score the big one she will never subcome to marriage but will mess around with your man in a heart beat.


Or

Spot Hemrod.....a cross dressing land developer that has even swindled her grandmother out of her land. A true Donald Trump persona

By day she appears to be a bon V bon man about town throwing caution and money to the wind with a true flair for developing.

.....By night fall she the towns serial killer, all the single tall dark and handsome men in the area fear they could be next...she has no morals or heart it was ripped out when the love of her life Gladstone Fodderingham the 3rd. Left her for her twin sister Angel a woman with all her curves in the right places. Gladstone never could pretend to be the gay life partner she need him to be.

Fate and her twisted mind has played such cruel tricks on her. All Due to the twisted need of her parents to want a boy an heir to the family business. All they had were their twin girls...so she was forced to dress like a boy and never be seen as the true woman she could be.

[Pansy Faye]

Here's the topper - Lucifer Hill - and I dont even want to think of what kind of character that would be. Just not a good thing no matter what.*rotfl*

[SilverMirth]

Here's the topper - Lucifer Hill - and I dont even want to think of what kind of character that would be. Just not a good thing no matter what.*rotfl*

He is obviously the hero of our little soap opera "As the Wenches Wubby"

Now, its his twin brother everyone has to watch out for.

[surlywench]

Pussy G


She's the local stripper who's really a deep UC fbi agent sent in to topple the town's blackmarket organ ring.

[MoonWench]

Sunshine Temple is the nicest girl in town with multiple personalties. Her bad girl altar ego Sammy came forth after a kidnapper killed her twin brother Sam.

[Sorcha Griannon]

Fluffy Wall
I am the ditsy step-daughter of the mayor. No one thinks anything of telling their secrets to me thinking I'm too dingy to remember...looks can be deceiving;-)

Sorcha

[AnnaFaerie]

If I used the info from now I would be Muttley Main. Hmmmmm.....what kind of story would Miss Muttley have?

[Thistle]

Hello! I'm Bipsywoodle High (Bips, for short). I'm a very serious town councilwoman running for mayor.

[Neelloca]

EEE Gads....Here I go......

PORKCHOP WASHINGTON is my name.

I am the illegitemate daughter of my mother and the Sherriff. Mother was quite upset that daddy would not leave his wife and marry her, and she gave me a name that would never let me forget! My life has been a series of sneers and jokes from everybody in town. They all knew what happened. Eventually, I ran away and made my home in the city park. Now people fear the crazy lady who lives in there. They have no idea that it is me, and I get them back one at a time....

[Constance Innuendo]

I'm Sugar Savanna, I'm a debutante wannabe that grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. (can you just HEAR the bad Georgia accent!?). My Brother Reggie (pronounced reh-jeh), when he's not in the Penn also makes appearances. We're just a couple of small time cons trying to make it big.


I have to comment on my present state/ Character.

I would be Penny Willow Lane, thats right folks, Penny Lane here, mild mannered music afficionado, and Music teacher at the elementary school. I mostly keep to myself since the devastating loss of the love of my life Baron Scarlett.

[DangerousCurves]

*bump*

On my current info, I'm even scarier...Josephine Mt. Pleasant. Village bicycle. Group rates available. Senior citizen discount.

[shadowcat546]

HI.
Fun game.
Ok, "Muffin" for first pet--a mini schnauzer (sp?). and "Janet" for the street. Though I 'd rather use my fave dog's name: Katrinka (Trinka for short). "Trinka Janet"
Have to think of a story.
--Shannon in Michigan

[Ravin' Raven]

Flattleflull Creswell here...

You may think I'm just a ditzy blonde but underneath this silly bubbleheaded exterior is a cunning, wily home wrecker with the smarts to invest the millions I've made from extorting all of those married men and women to buy a small private island that I'm going to fly off to and run like a mini monarch.

(oh and I was three and a parakeet flattles his wings and flulls...)

[Wench Paradox]

How fun. I was totally giggling reading this so i decided to add mine.

(Then) Muffin Chicago the great grand daughter of notorious gangster Al Chicago who is determined to get even with the families of those who ratted him out.

(Now)Spectre Stewart is an albino vegetarian playwright and daughter of the local mortician. She wears outrageously heavy eyeliner and writes playes about other people's feet.

Eldest sister of:

-Salome Stewart, dancing girl at the local cabaret trying to make enough money to leave town, but never does;
-Hamia Stewart, fortune-teller at the boardwalk carnival who no one ever sees during the day;
-Khepri Stewart, a beautiful but ‘simple’ girl who spends her days making collages out of dried insects;
-And Youma & Inu Stewart, fraternal girl twins adopted from Japan and who have totally opposite personalities except for their kleptomania

[Taffy Saltwater]

We always did this as the stripper's name. Mine is Mitsy McKinley, I'm a former chorus girl gone to flesh, but I still think I'm all that & the bag of chips. I had a baby daughter back in 1986 who mysteriously disappeared, which is why I haven't been sober in the last 2 decades. My 3rd ex-husband's 28 year old son is dating a lovely, but troubled, 22 year old mystery woman. Wait a minute ...

[Savantage]

let's see how about Kissy Edison......I just recently found out I'm the long lost grandaughter of the famous inventor I was left on the steps of the hospital as a young child and suffer from amnesia (sp?) and have been reunited with my great aunt while working as a cashier at an adult bookstore ::whistle::(sounds uniqie doesn't it?)
