They are sometime confused and often amused when I have to re-introduce myself. When I’m really tired or distracted and answer the phone, I sometimes identify myself by my maiden name (sorry Honey!).

There, among the sorcerors, knowing another sorceror's true name meant you had ultimate power over them. Yay true names. :)

To me you've mostly been Smug Puppies Jeri, or Jeri UCF, and you'll still be those, I hope. A new start for yourself, while honoring and remembering the past, is much to be desired. Good luck with the change while you expand on who you've always been. :) Jeri, I think I understand why you’re doing it, as well as not why you’re doing it, and I congratulate you on your strength and resolve.

Not that there is anything wrong with Sisco. It fits but Eric's name fits much better. Eric - Great Name!!! Jeri,

That is a perfectly awesome name, although it'd be kind of hard to fit in a standard check signature line. I actually thought of you while I was sitting in court, there were many public defenders wandering around with their clients. (Many of whom were wearing ratty jeans and flip flops... sad.) Michelle, do you know where I left the keys to the Defiant? I can't seem to find 'em. Ah, Eric, if only I’d consulted you first.

"Sisco" is a perfectly nice name, but with a few penstrokes you could have been "Jeri Kickass McAwesomepirateninjaqueen". And that's how <i>I'll</i> choose to think of you, and <i>your</i> self-image be damned. ;-) Jeri, I have to tell you the truth: I’m very disappointed in you.

I'd forgotten about the Earthsea cycle. I'll have to reread that once I've gotten through all the books currently in hopper to read. Ahhh. I’d forgotten about the Earthsea cycle.
