It has been interesting for me to see the various names chosen by members of our T.S.T.C. on-line Second Life special topics photography class. We recognize the T.S.T.C. Staff by the last name of "Techsan." For me that seems close to technician, and I think it is an interesting choice. Maybe they can explain that to us a little more. We appreciate the technical skills that our teachers have and are willing to share with us in such a dedicated way.
When I chose my own name "Texanna Schumann" I was first thinking that I was a Texan, and I love the name Anna, so I put them together for "Texanna." Also, I think the name "Texanna" has a happy sound to it, and I envision my character in Second Life as being a happy, healthy, wholesome kind of girl. The name "Schumann" as a last name appealed to me because it seems to be a German name, which is part of my Real Life relative experience.
I would be interested to know more about the experience of choosing a name for my classmates and our teachers. It's such an interesting process and I'm sure there may be a story behind each one. I welcome all of you to make comments to my blog and share those experiences.
Let's see, in the meantime I will be wondering about Jarrod Kappler, Marisol Noel, Street Cortes, Lowri Mills, Subatomic Sands, Keny watanabe, Trillian Gynoid, Maxi Dassin, Kameko Suising, and Stiletto Snook. I invite all of you to share your experience of choosing a name for Second Life.

Well Texanna, I can't really give you my inspiration for my name...that's the one they gave me. I do believe the Techsan part though is supposed to be a spin off from Texan. But I'm not sure..that's a RickA or a KevinRB question. I can tell you about my alter ego's name: DrucillaMae Snowdrop.
See, I've been accused of being prissy or a girly-girl (or as my sister says "you are such a girl"). I've even been accused of having a Princess Complex. DrucillaMae just sounded like a true prissy girls name..and DrucillaMae is truly prissy.
Now, whether or not I am truly prissy...that's all in the eye of the beholder. :D
