Terri with an I?? terri with an I! my life is complete, I knew another one of us existed. Do you ever get a starnge urge to break people's legs when they spell Terri with a y? cos i don't....honest.

Yup, i actually used to start signing things Terri with an eye drawing at the end!!!!

My surname is even worse, it is Stirling, most people assume it's with an E!

I only changed my name to Terri 'cos I was so fed of with people asking "Oh, is that Teresa, Theresa or Thérèse?"

So, do you get the "But that's a boys name!" bit too?

yup i made the mistake of saying to one of the comedians in the comedy club we go to every week that i was welsh and was called terri. oooooooooooh that was a fun night anyway congratumalations on having an 'individual' name (i been tellin myself that for years)

did you start off as Teresa & have to endure yrs of the "ho ho, trees R green!" nonsense?

Hey, posted to you somewhere else to come & wreak havoc on my journal space, "Birds Eye" thread, anarchy rules over there & there is someone who is dying to meet you!

lol no i'm terri just terri thank god. no offence to the name teresa i just hate it is all. Unfortunately my mother recently told me how i got my name, i was in fact named after some bloke on brookside. cheers for that mam. i'm actually about to shimmy on down to the birds eye thread this minute so see u there.

My dear departed Mama informed me i was only called Teresa becuse i was supposed to have been a boy called Terry!

Hell, i will try & do better next time i get born, fancy being the wrong sex!!

lol i think personally my mam only called me terri because she couldn't be bothered to think of different names for a girl and a boy. the brookside story was just a lie to make me think she actually put a little thought into things. but hey no complaints there's two of us now and all is well
